pirate Posted June 9, 2009 Report Posted June 9, 2009 just thought i would show you i picture of my mk 1 rs1600. it was taken off the road in 1990 and it has taken me 15 years to get my mate to sell it to me, and a further 18 months to get it on the road. i will be doing a complete restoration in a couple of years but just wanted to geet it on the road to have a bit of fun before all the hard work starts [/img]http://

livewire7116 Posted June 9, 2009 Report Posted June 9, 2009 Pity that the bda was replaced with a twin cam tho, I remember seeing that car tucked away in his old business unit sat on 4 flat tyres and asked him then if it was for sale
