Ahhhhhhhhhh my dream. RS1600i. Did you attend RS Combe last year David? There was an 1600i there for sale, with restoration pics. Anyway, i rang him thinking the maximum id pay was £5000, which at the time i would of. He was asking £9000!

EDIT - What ECU you using David? Im sure my cousin said he has a spare OFAB....

Have you chosen a stand yet? Ill be posting on PassionFord when i can be bothered, to see if i can get in with my FRST, hopefully bump into you there.

As already said the crack where the vents are,mainly from the sun heat in the summer :(

have seen em sell for £500 and header tanks £300lol

fords rs parts is crazy money,I own an IDF Airbox for a mk2 rs2000 and its worth £500 mental....also a front grill for a mk2 mexico worth £350 !!!!

[Bubba]

mint is mk1...whether its brand spankers, or rotten ;)

[db_1.2]

My S1 was cracked, had some epicly gash leather retrim aswell.

[davidfox280585]

no db im registered over on seriesoneturbo.co.uk great set of guys but by they know how to charge for stuff,
i dont tend to go on passionfight seems too busy for me but there is a lot of helpful people on there though,
over on s1 site we get some well known gurus like jano and jacko over so some good guys

[Bubba]

theres a mexico around here somewhere, its "close to mint" ill get pics next time i see it

[db_1.2]

Sounds a lot better over there. I tend not to use PassionFord, not a great fan of the community, but i suppose nothing really compares to PNG if im honest.

But like you said, theres a lot of useful people there, i know a few people registered on PassionFord from here.

Ill be joining FiestaTurbo.com when i can be bothered. Just so much to do at the moment, i thought the best aproach would be to do nothing at all!

[RSTChris]

RS Turbos are the sh1t :)

Just wish they were Nova money!

Miss my 2.1 zetec turb FRST :(
