i know of a few 18s that owners have lost interest in the scene etc, but they wont sell, i could name 10+ cars i reckon in this situation. a couple i would say have seen better days...sad.

again the same with other cars....theres alot out there that have been put to one side as priorities in life take a turn

[graham John]

i know of of few down this way (s.wales)
a black RS2000 custom (no, not mine) been there 25 years, not rusting away, but just sitting there covered in dust / bits etc

also mk 2 rally car, cracking spec, hasnt done a thing in 20 years

closer to home, a yellow RS2000 custom, 40,000 miles and hasnt been out of the garage except for MOTs, think the car has done about 40 miles in the last ten year, not rusting away, just left there and occasionally started / run, could be for sale for the man with the right money though

A garage near me has a Black RS2000 sat in there which hasn't moved for years. Keep pestering him to sell it but not a chance. He also has a lovely series 1 Turbo in the same condition. Does annoy me this kind of thing
