There you go, smallish world. I shall say the same on here; that's a really lovely looking car and they get better with every passing year.

I'd even say they drive better now than they did when new as their character shines through so well against 'easier' modern performance cars.

Thanks for that, I also own a Lotus Carlton which is equally as quick as the RS2 but reaches the top speed in a completely different way, (Lag/No lag), but getting into the RS2 and strapping yourself in is a lovely feeling and you feel more a part of the car than the Lotus, which I liken it to a three seater sofa on steroids. The RS2 comes off of roundabouts and out of corners as tight as hell, whereas in the Lotus you must wait till your wheels are almost pointing straight ahead before you can give it a boot full but by heck it flies once its moving. Dont get me wrong they both have good and bad points but the RS more good than the Lotus. Funnily enough the Lotus gets more attraction than the RS2, I guess most people just see an old Audi 80 estate which is a bit shiny.

Talk softly, carry a big stick wink

The Lotus likes to wave its big stick around whilst singing at the top of its voice!
