cool i really love the rs200 saw one at oulton park when i was about 12 since then ive always loved them specially the 2.1ltr 700bhp evo but even the 1.8ltr version has around 450bhp. would love to own 1 one day but its the running cost it would have to have a engine re-build every 2 weeks lol and the gear box in the words or jeremy clarkson "the gearbox is like that of a tractors but that being unfair to tractors" lol

Well Caprixpack, the problem with esp. the evo is that the asking price is raising almost by the day, you better be quick with buying one.
And if you do don't forget to invite the other enthousiasts for a quick spin

Most of them in collector's hands it seems, they have special regulated rooms where they keep these beauties out of our sights

Peeps,

Glad you like www.rs200.org as I have enjoyed making it

My passenger seat (in chassis #193) is often empty as my wife says it makes her feel sick !!!

Just tap me on the shoulder at any of the 2005 meets and if possible we can go round the block, I love her and the idea of passing that "fun" on to others is great !!!

Justin

P.S. - Not rich, just took 2 x Ł25k unsecured loans and will keep her as long as I can pay the re-payments !!!!!!!!!!!!

MaxRS - I'll be the one with the dirty big grin on me face !

As for 2nd "red" lever

Forward = 50/50 4WD with the centre diff locked (bit like a discovery when off road) so all wheels turn.

Backwards = All RWD - Not funny !

Middle (and where 99% of them stay) is a 70% / 30% (ish I cannot remember the exact split) 4wd with the centre diff open.

Some were sold with the red lever in place, some had the lever removed and the gearbox locked into 70/30.

FORD intended the lever only to remain for "rally" sales but seeing as that stopped as it started they had to sell to the general public, most buyers wanted and asked to make sure that 2nd red lever was there when they collected it - so a LOT have them

has anyone managed to track down a copy of that bad rally RS200 crash video that was one here a while ago before the guy's lost the video when his site got hacked? Think it was marc surer in 1986, not sure which rally....

....... me too, someone emailed me it.

I haven't made up my mind whether it should be posted up on the site as the passenger dies and it is a pretty bad stack bursting into flames - Marc got pretty badly burn't also.
