Hello guys,

Been a car guy since i was at School and last yeear got my first Ford being a Mk3 ST 250 which i found felt lacking to some of my previous cars which i will post below (not the Punto)

My old FN2 Civic Type R handled like a dream and loved to be driven hard and i always found the ST250 lacked this but i test drove the mk3 RS and it reminded me of the days when i had my civic.

Great forum btw

1st Car

2nd Car

3rd Car (For long distance was running 200BHP though and alot of fun)

4th Car

Then current car which is used daily and put 3000 miles on within 4 weeks

Also the GF uses it and takes it to very strange places

Hello, mate. Is your GF aware that getting an RS dirty is widely frowned upon? Some of the ‘garage queen’ mob are going to have a fit.

I need a woman like Lizi ! and so does Howsey !

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 Just a chunky knob, thats now been replaced by an RS knob innit.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?
