Looks in fantastic condition but....

It's got a Ford badge, so I'm out

 

[Gordini]

Bet that's worth a pretty penny these days...

 

[Siliconsteve]

With you Ben, doesn't float my boat

 

[Chris]

Absolutely stunning mate - think I'll put a nsfw tag on this thread!

 

[LOCKE]

Very nice mate. I prefer the original RS Turbo alloys though. A few of my mates had the RS back in the day I only had a couple of XR3i's.

 

[Johnny 99]

Not porn, that's smutty, more like religion! Not a Ford fan as such, more a petrol head, & that definitely floats my boat

I'm being slow here, what's nsfw?

When I was a young Man they were the dream car for 20 somethings I promise

 

[mr freeze]

Not for me

That shows that we're the same age Kev. Ok I'm 3 months older than you, but whatever! I so wanted to buy my mate's XR3i, & then a girl I really fancied at work got an RS turbo Escort. God! Did I want that woman even more! Didn't stand a chance even if she wasn't already married!

I got to drive the XR3 press car such a fast car for its time

Agreed.
These wheels are just too big (IMHO) for a classic like RS T is... but anyways, the car is a dream mate.

 

[///M]

Branx is right, the wheels are definitely too big. Should be 16s at the very largest, 15s are better. Bet the ride is shocking!

That said, it's in spectacular condition and bloody gorgeous elsewhere.

I'm an old school RS Ford man. Had an S1 RST, a Fiesta RST and a couple of Cosworths. The S1 was around 200bhp and had proper brakes and suspension. First car I ever modified. Loved it dearly.

Would love another. A mint super low miles one sold for quite a penny recently...

And I like this one (although the wheels are silly again!)...

Not safe for work

 

[Mossy]

Put the original wheels back on pleeeeeeeeeease and leave it alone

 

[Sneydster]

Immaculate condition specimen so top marks for the work involved etc but I'm with Ben, it's not lol.

Still looks nice.

 

[Antti O]

Great S2 RST. I had one too some years ago. 267BHP / 350nm torque from that 1600cvh with Mitsubishi turbo + efi + some other mods..

I agree i prefer the oe look myself .

 

[MarcB]

I have the orignal alloys from factory for the car.

I might get round to putting them back on one day
