Default My first RS!!
Here she is - my first RS!











Got her about three weeks ago after wanting one for about ten years!! Got the car for £550 cos it needed a bit of work (non runner due to fuel pump goosed, cracked headlights, valve stems needed done, missing jacking points etc) but even at that I thought it was a bargain!!

totally original when I got it except exhaust, dump valve, filter, clears and 90 spec interior. So far i've added:

16" Mondy Si rims
Smoked rears
Tunes
new plates and lights
Swapped 90 spec interior for 88 spec (cos it had darker headlining to match)

Due to get lowered very shortly (desperately needs it), a decent alarm on it and full service and set up.

Had a paint job about three years ago and i reckon its the wrong shade of red? Being an E plate I thought it should be Rosso red but plate under bonnet says Radiant? I know the car was written off 10 years ago so might have summat to do with that.

Anyway, happy viewing and hope you all like!

looks good. Can't complain at that price. Be even better once you've sorted your engine.
