If I was a millionaire, these are the types of cars I'd have.
Same. I’d have Sierra Cosworth RS 500
I could of bought a mint 1 of these for £2000 🤦🏻♂️
100% Renault 5 turbo pulsar xr2 escort cosworth rs2 golfs vr6
Agreed. You could save money and have an even faster/more fun car while not worrying too much about it being broken
@Ryan Hamill hindsight’s a wonderful thing though 😂
My dream car was (still is) a focus rs mk2 but when I get near the price they go up again 😂
Yes Ricky!!! Nice to see you appreciate a old school Ford RS 👌🏼
Get the sierra on smithy
I’ve got similar car in 90 spec, very clean, be out soon once weather is better if you want a vid?
People dont realise that they were machines back in the day, these i grew up with, that and uno turbo's, r5 gt, cav gsi's, astra gte's, 19 16v's. Back when anything from 130-230bhp was plenty of power to have fun, driven hard on norfolk roads gave plenty of smiles, didnt need 5-600hp back then, miss seeing these motors, and that owner is so deserving of that series 2, what a genuine bloke
Toyota twin cam
Not forgetting the Peugeot 205 1.6, 1.9 GTI
This was my first car in 97 cost me £3000 to buy and £3000 to insure on my mums insurance. Sick car 👍🏻
That’s mad considering I got my first car at 17 in 2007 it was a 2001 Saxo vtr cost me £4750 and cost me £4500 to insure. Prices of insurance have forever been fucking everyone wallet since 1985-1990 onwards it seems and my old man agrees.
What a first car - mine was a bloody hand me down Mini Cooper 😅
Cars were cheap back then ffs
@@StoneCold_ tell me about it. And another thing is 90’s to 2010 if you had 200-300bhp that was a stupidly fast car now 400bhp is seen as the norm for a lightly moded hot hatch.
What a flawless example! I was 14yrs old when this car first came. This was the ford iconic era the escort rs/cosworth/xr3i,RS2000, Sierra cosworth/RS500, xr4i 2.8L,fiesta xr2/rs. Astra gsi/sport.
You see with old skool cars like this it’s nothing to do with ragging it about it’s all about cruising, and just appreciating the coolness. Speaking as a nearly 40yr old man this is a dream car to see in the flesh…really rare. Top marks
Hats of for Borris! Amazing to see our PM supporting the local car communities!
This has gotta be one of the best ones yet. The owner is such a genuine, down to earth guy, even giving Ricky and Joe thanks for their time. Showing appreciation for the time and effort you also sacrifice in what you do, really does make the world of difference. He is right though, you've came so so far and you've really achieved something here Ricky. 👍
Respect deserved to the guy who built it and Omar for keeping it original 👌
Ricky let's see a Sierra Rs500 if possible?! Its nice to see these 80's car!
Amazing example this is what I grew up on still looks modern now to me! The 80s-90s sports versions of everyday runarounds are all classics now! Keep this content coming Ricky love it!👍
Man like Omar! Awesome example, a real dream car for many. Big respect for taking it out in the einter and letting Ric drive it 😄
Respect to Omar for letting the Riskster loose behind the wheel of this minter......it really is lovely lovely lovely. Those RS red fleck interiors of the day still look great and those Recaros.......
The wheels do make this car look much better in stance. More old skool please Ricky..........big thumbs up
Loving the old school ford content
Such a nice clean example
Saw how nice u drove it as it was his pride an joy
Not many out there now
I had 2 Escorts and a Fiesta RS. Not the greatest cars but they are just special. This would be a lottery win purchase, one like this and one with a 2.1 ZVH. Incredible cars
I like an rs turbo, but my heart is with the fiesta rs turbo, came across one when i was driving a standard WRX and it held its own in a straight line ;)
Always loved rs turbos,my favourite car as a teenager,actually still miss mines tbh
Had 2 of these back in the day, great cars, sound brilliant
If it was mine I would do a few light performance mods just to make the performance more lively probably around 160-170bhp
it is nice to see piece of history on the road and in this condition, just woow man :O i am 28 year old and i love older cars, if i had a lot of money these are the type of cars i will buy. sry for my bad english im from Croatia :)
Love this car . I’d have the original alloys on this though with it being so original
Ford RS7's are great though on the series 2
@@rundattmedia2106 agreed but with the theme of the car being kept how it is imho I’d prefer it with the standards on .
Lovely motor, I had the same Mercury grey one on an E plate in the mid 90s, swapped it for an XR3i rag top thinking I was the dogs danglies at the time. Gotta say I’d prefer the standard RS wheels on it.
Beautiful car, best colour for Ford Escort RS. Keep up the good work!
Interesting to see a young boy's perspective of an iconic 80's hot hatch, respect to the owner for recognising a good classic and keeping it on the road.
Oh my fuckin god!! I made multiple messy patches!! And thats before we even saw the interior! Then we heard the mileage! Whole new outfit required!! This my childhood dream!! You will probably never see an absolutely immaculate example like this for a long fuckin time! What a car!
Brings back soo many memories I was 16 when I see this car soo amazing I still love it what a stunning example
Just had visions of Ricky showing us how clean it is, and drops the camera on it.
I used to own a black one. K&N induction kit. Magnex 4” tailpipe. Dump valve, super chipped.
Gutted when I sold it, a long with many classics of my era.
I just love the variety on this channel
Saw one of these today, patched up, with just enough life to make it home, cortinas, etc are still doing there thing near my area, but this classic is the business,
Stunning .
Stunning motor , so much character
Seriously one of my dream cars this is, SERIES 2 RS TURBO. Absolutely stunning car and still to this day one of the best sounding aswell.
Definitely one of my first purchases if I ever won the lottery, 100% love it
Man went out in MA Developments old S2 RS Turbo back in the day. Went like stink blad. Plate was B19 LAG (T34 turbo). Wicked times. Big up Ben if you're watching!
Yeah remember him and that RS, only lived around the corner from me 👍
@@trevcannon Oh cool did you. The sound of it was wicked !
That air freshener was a nice touch.
That’s the dream right there. Being a 90’s icon
Absolutely beautiful, great to still see these in this condition
What a lucky man to own this car! Enjoy it, love it and keep using it 👍
Great old skool vid Ricky.. As for car absolutely STUNNING
I prefer the series 1 but love these almost as much as a cosworth
Wow absolutely beautiful car 100% legendary car
I’m just loving that feu orange air freshener 👍👌🏼
My old car. Hope you’re enjoying owning it as much as I did. Can I have my air freshener back? 😂
A credit to you for keeping it mint/standard ! I’d be mentally wounded for having let it go! Stunning car! 👍
@@kevinlawes591 I spent lots of time and money on eBay buying genuine new parts whenever they popped up which would improve the car. It’s an incredible shell, one of the cleanest un-welded out there probably. Only parted with it as storage became a bit of an issue.
Alan most welcome mate. It's a great car you've done a great job on it I'll be keeping it hopefully.
@@alanlaidlaw1813A shame you had to let it go! You can see the attention to detail looks brand new! You must be more ocd than me 😂
@@RS_ENTHUSIAST_786 top man mate. 👍
Always wanted one at the time but couldn't afford it, beautiful car in pristine condition
My dream car, I'd have it purring at just over 200 bhp and leave it mint like that
I love this guy he's proper into his RS turbo like I would be if it was mine I'm made up for him
Dream car for me love the look of the mk4 escort and Sierra 3dr
Gorgeous car.... absolutely stunning..
In Mercury grey.... More oldies pls Ricky
Wow what a beautiful car
I was always a golf gti man mk2 back in the day and my mates were rs turbo drivers. seeing this car brought back some good memories ..that car look wicked for the age🔥🔥
Bet the cab is a vibe with the old skool feel smell and the period air freshener would have smashed me back to the 90s lol 😆
Not a Ford guy but wow that is beautiful 😍
The air freshener man 😂😂.. my dad had the same ones in the 80’s
The owner looks nervous.. pray it don’t rain, pray he don’t fall down no pot holes, or curb the wheels 😂😂 get it back home as quick as possible.
Nice though 🤙🏻👌
This was my pals car and its absolutely gorgeous in the flesh.
BOOOM!! what a motor ... remember when I was buying these for £1500 lol .. great video and a lovely guy. Proper old skool car scene. I'm going to have to buy a series 1 at some stage again for the channel.
The first new car I bought was a 1988 U.S. Ford Escort GT. My first choice was an '87 Ford Mustang Notchback that was at the dealership. Since my Father was helping me with the loan he had the final say. Having a V8 5 speed my Father was a hard NO. Getting the Escort GT I immediately began looking to modify the car. That's when I discovered the British version.
Every month I made my payment I cried that there was no way I could legally copy the beautiful British Escort.
What an awesome ride!
had a number of S2 RSTurbos in the early to mid 2000's....had problems with all of them. Gearboxes were rubbish, overheating all the time, turbos failed constantly but wow they sounded awesome and I got sooo much attention from them...
Same box as the 1.3L
Just not man enough for the job
Mine will wear a freshly built one out in 3k miles
Standard Ford rads are rubbish too. Just not up to the job. Especially when you’re making non standard power.
Not really a Ford fan but that is absolutely beautiful 😍
Ricky the boris mask broke me 🤣🤣🤣
Cars like this shouldn’t be garage queens. They need to be road kings and shown of. Miss the days when you would see these, Sierra cossie’s, escort cossies, nova gsi’s, Astra gte’s etc on the road. Now it’s just all pop and bang BMW’s and fiesta’s st’s etc.
Big VW GTi fanboy but I would trade a kidney for one of these.. Could only afford a S2 XR3i back in the day, and would love to own one. Brilliant Find LLF 👏, credit to the guy who's cared and cherished it 👊
Always in the shadow of the ser 1 however that's one lovely example...
Wow!! Mint condition inside & out, I had one back in the day had load’s of fun with it, wish I’d kept it‼️
Another great vid Ricky 👊🏾
Thats mint rs loved seeing those growing up great content ricky
Nice bit of old school that, looks minty as 👌
Yeh Ricky my type of motor had many of these back in the 2000's ❤
90’s Fast Fords 🥰🥰🥰
A really nice clean car - very impressed. Having Michael Myers in my rear seat would freak me out a bit though
Seriously clean S2 can't believe it has 91000 on it. Lovely 😍
Old skool beautiful
Back in ‘92, my mate had convertible version of this. Lowered, chipped, leather interior and in dark metallic blue. It was the shit! Was so jealous…
Looks exactly like my dad old RS. Same wheels, same exhaust but it was red.
😍😍Wow that's stunning
Man Like Ricky back with another old Classic a Ford RS Cossie man I love these cars I'm sure my dad used to own one of these man these are old school Gem man lovely car this is man
When Boris jumps on for the ride 🤣 absolute Madness haha cracking vid's man I do love these old Classics especially Ford's man what a car but the money these are nowadays are going up in Value massively
Great Video as always Ricky 👍
That Boris mask is hilarious 😂😂
Loved these car's bk in the day just couldn't afford 1 I was just leaving school when they were about
Love this type of video. Omar seems like a great guy and has alot of appreciation for these classics.
You need to hit up Ray (in your c63 coupe video) to do a similar video in his 500 sec merc 👍🏽
An absolute beauty.
That looks stunning fair play to the owner
Ha ha even the car air freshener is old school. Brings back memories.battery tray always a mot failure on these.
replica
That’s a nice motor man 👌🏼
That’s been ma dream car since a was a teen .
An aff white one .
Well done Omar man it’s a beautiful thing fella
I was 18, one of my first jobs, I was rewarded with this car (Company car) for 3 months....God it was fast, sound of the turbo was Brill, but when you shut the door it went clink...you knew if you has a crash, you'd be a gonna.
Awesome machine but I prefer the curves of the 90s spec spoiler and bumper. They changed the complete look of the car.
Stunning 😎
You bring such great content every time but such low views... I don't know why dude but your smashing it!!
A real petrol heads car . Thanks for doing this one Ricky . A car from my youth
Just shows you don't have to just have really fast cars!! Was nice to appreciate something old skool. I would buy that car. Nice colour too. Well done 👍
Absolutely concours car for the year looking from video 😳 my friend had a white series 1 bk in 1991 , that was my 1st taste of passenger seat turbocharged street action 😁🏎
That's spotless!
Best colour for the ESCORT RST. Mint, very nice.
80s babys dream🔥🔥🔥
That guy in the back🤣
Boris joining the party, nothing new there then! 👍
Super clean 👌
What a beautiful car!! And how pristine is it
I’m from Jamaica and I’m telling I love vintage I have a vovlo 940 GL 2.3
*Another vintage beauty on the channel c'mon* 👏
love it more like this matey what a car
That's an awesome example 👌
The bojo mask is the funniest thing I've seen this year 😂
🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭
What a car❤classic
I rebuilt this car after respray. The body is solid
If you done the job then you've done it at a good level. Well done mate
