Default My New Escort Rs Turbo **New Pictures 4/8/06**

Well me and the other half got bored of our Escort GTi and decided to buy a Escort Rs Turbo.We found this one and went and had a look at it and bought it.

Its a G reg 90 spec with 83k with fsh

Some sensible mods to the car.
Power engineering stainless steel exhaust
Adjustable Koni Shocks & springs
Chipped
Forge Actuator
Boost Guage
Goodrich Brake lines.
3 spoke rs steering wheel.








These are the only pictures i have at the moment which the last owner took

Very nice and loving the colour

Obviously its quicker than the GTi you had but whats the comparison with ride quality? i expect the RS is alot more bumpy/bouncy since its older car?

To be honset its a lot more comfortable than the GTi even though it has koni's.

Its just loads better

I still have the GTi but its up for sale to pay for the Rs
