    Hi all

    ok so many years ago I had the escort rs turbos and the later fiesta rs we then sold that when we decided to have kids and spas that’s all been and done and being lucky enough to have a comfortable mortgage with a few years left I’m approaching me fifty’s so going to dove in a mk3 rs ?

    went to rs direct in Bristol and would say I was very impressed with the set up there so that’s where I’m going to buy one ?

    No nothing.

    No Mods. No rockers. Just a chunky knob, thats now been replaced by an RS knob innit.

    No tackiness.

    Std as Ford intended, but with a space saver wheel and jack and nuts and wheel brace. oh.. and flaps, a man has got to have flaps.

    Innit?

    <!–more–>Hi Jason, I’ve heard good things about RS Direct. I can’t say myself as I never used them but I subscribed to their webmail when I first looked around and they do seem a bit pricey. That said, they do tend to have better low mileage examples. I’d certainly have a look about even if you do buy from them as at least you’ll get a good feel for prices. Out of interest, where about are you? I ask as I’m in the Midlands and may be able to suggest some alternatives if you are near by.

    The stock list range of cars seem comprehensive and well priced, would be a good alternative to RS Direct.
