I went to a local car show today where there was everything from a rat style corsa (forgot to take pics) to a pagani zonda.
There were so many cars, i couldn't get a pic of them all, but here are the pics i did take.

The RS200 was cool, but i was more shocked to see an RS1800.

Right Ford n00b here, I've heard of an RS2000 and an RS1600 but not the 1800 - I guess that means they are rare?

Looks mighty fresh

Nice pics, some lovely cars.

This really pisses me off though. Why spend all that money to have it on fucking stands at shows, it really is pointless. It isnt even a special/iconic car ffs.

Simple. Becasuse they can, and they can afford it.
The car may not be special to you, but thousands of Ford fans would disagree.

I very much doubt that will become an iconic car.

That car was actually really impressive.
Was running about 275-280 bhp, and a lot quicker than a few subarus and evos round the corners.
The guy was certainly having more fun
