Standard turbo vs RS1800 regardless of what the figures say RS1800 would win.

Yours doesnt rev as hard or as easily and powersteering is shite compared to manual on the RS.

This is why your car looks like it does, copied me, colour, wheels, seats, induction kit

Always wanted 1 of these but by fuk clean 1s are hard to come by.

Always remember a few years back there was a fiesta that shape kicking about but it was basic spec and had a 2.0 Zetec under the bonnet.Was quick and used to give a mates old XE Corsa a good run.

that 2.0 zetec engine would not have been as good as the 1800 version

this rs1800 would have given an XE a good run even in standard form

Loved the early nineties Really wanted a blue one of these in standard form.

As said for a decent one money was a bit tight, so i settled for a Clio Valver.

RS1800 faster than an XE, deffo.

Like Butler says the RS1800 is faster than 2.0 16v conversion in the Fiesta.

So well balanced.

There was an RS1800 that used to go about my way and it certainly wasn't faster than my XE. Less power/torque and not much difference in weight Handling wise naturally it'd be far superior but it wasn't in a straight line.
