yeh the 1600i's are sooo nice! my brother keeps getting temted to sell his xr2 and buy one, but he's going to wait till he moves out and gets a garage etc.
wouldnt mind one one day, old fords are cool!
Good lumps Rich especially when turbo charged.The racing RS1600is had 150bhp too! Simple yet effective back in the day considering the tech for the cost!
Cant knock RS's this is my bros 1 owner 31k S1 recently valued by the RSOC at 9k! Not even an original Sport would ever get near to that!
My 1st FRST - Good engines even with a whistle on!
My 2nd
My Bros old S2
chris you never sent me that pic of your bro's s1 when we were speaking. it looks awsome!!
S1
Although I am bias, to say its mint is an understatement. It one of a handful of 1 owner cars left. Truly a time warp, even has a cassette from the dealer to congratulate the new buyer on their purchase!
Still wanna buy my XE set up!
thats a beaut that rs 1600,.. no doubting. The RS 7 spokes diamond cut are choice for me too.. nice nice. Credit where credits due n all that..
"let me drive.. i won't make a fool out of you"
Fords are the future!
The cvh engine lets be honest is a pile of sh*t,the pinto is a good reliable and tunable engine,the BDA is an an outstanding engine,zetec is good,but please dont praise the cvh'ive got friends that love fords but even they admit the cvh is crap
