Lol there was always going to be a story with this one. I just feel sorry for the guy because he is so dead set on it he will be driving it home no matter what.

Although I probs bottle it as usual and keep the cunt if a wallet came out
I really don't think taking on such a project that doesn't move under its own steam is a good idea at the moment as I'm currently waiting on a completion date to move.

Once I'm moved and settled in though if you still have it I may well be in touch.

I bought her as I've always loved them, pref over the rustcorts tbh as unless you have had one you really don't know how good they are, plus my 1st born daughter had too come home in an RS, perk were its in Essex white,is Essex 1st reg'd and was in very solid condition..still is but it just abit erm stripped now

Anyways a loooooong list of why not's which has and does break my heart as she deserves to be on road but alas I'm just so done with it I want too rehome but I simply seem too bottle it at Las mim and so cycle continues

Erm so yeah that's bout the sum of it fella
That's mad mate, I no a guy ho has a rs16i blue 1 n mk2 rs2000 sitting there n won't sell em or fix em cos he doesn't have the time, will you do yours eventually?

I'm excited mate,
Hope it is as good as it sounds and if you buy it and want to modify it, go for it. It will be your car and your choice at the end of the day.

Ah yes I saw that one advertised.

It's a pity the grey one is just so far away. You could get over the logbook issue I think it's just the fact that the story's attached to it and it's clearly going to need more and not be as described.
