Was in London over the weekend seeing some old mates from University. I and one of the boys were walking down his quiet street near Earl's Court, and I heard a raucous noise behind me.

Much to our delight the car was an original white RS, old fashioned silver and black number plates, the lot.

Whilst the two of us stood open mouthed, the car stopped beside us and started doing a 3 point turn. I gave the thumbs up signal to the driver, who reciprocated the gesture enthusiastically....and promptly set off into a dough nut and then drove up the street in a massive power slide.

I was in ecstasy for hours afterwards.

Thank you Mr. RS driver if you are reading, I was the fat ginger kid on the pavement!

I LOVE the old RS and the way they sound and feel.
With the relative rarity of these beasts, I wonder if it was a replica?
At one time I was thinking of getting one instead of my 993TT, but often original RSs cost more and I think I've done the right thing with the TT, it's day to day ability and ability to double up as a GT cruiser.
