The RS is finally here!
 

I'll get some pictures up at some point soon but I'm sure you all know what they look like.

Picked it up last Friday and haven't stopped smiling since. The plan is to go easy on it for the 1st 1000 miles but even doing that it still feels awesome, and the pops and bangs are a giggle too. I'll get to some meets at some point to. I have a few plans for it so will start a thread lol! :-D

Awesome! Glad it's been worth what must have been an agonising wait.

The man with his red coat finally turn up !:santagrin:

Never mind

Can't wait to see it and hear it in the flesh and look forward to the project thread :ok:

Awesome Steve! Look forward to seeing it.

Nice one mate, was a bit of a wait but must be nice to sit in it at last! Look forward to seeing it and catching up at some point :)

Hopefully, like for me ,the wait was worth it.

very good to here it,enjoy.

Awesome, Glad it arrived finally.

Finally! Sounds like the wait was worth it. Hope to see it close up soon :ok:

PICS! or it didn't happen!

:agreed:

He'll be 'drifting' like Block somewhere.....

Glad it turned up Steve and the wait was worth it.
I test drove a used black one Sunday and a new Blue one turned up Monday which could of been mine.....so a massive 24 hour waiting list !!!
But I could hear Scooby crying in the garage when i got home so have postponed until she's ready for a new partner rather than a divorce.

Sorry chaps, I've been to LeMans in it this weekend. I'll give her a bath and get some pictures up. 600 miles down, 400 to go but to be fair it didn't hamper my enjoyment, plenty of popping and banging even under 4000rpm. :drive:

Wise choice. I think you'd regret getting shot of the scoob, its part of your family. I don't think you would regret the RS though. Its so well sorted.

Mmm. Double posted somehow.

Which would u like - first or second? Ha ha- looks mint!

2nd please mate!!

Done :ok:

Cheers dude. Ah, I remember when i had those powers lol.

Loving the colour I must say :ok:

Looks great ,

Very tidy mate :ok:

Looking good and great spec but do I see no shell seats?

Very smart so where have you been with those 2 extra bits on the boot lid .

Looking good Steve,how's the cleaning regime ?

Nope! Tried them but didn't like the fact that they weren't height adjustable plus in the winter I like heated seats!! The shells do look the part though.

Hi terry,

My order from polished bliss turned up a few weeks ago. Had to refresh everything as all the old stuff was, well, old!

That wasn't cheap but all set now to stay on top of it. I need a day on it to clay it etc though to be fair they did a pretty good job cleaning it when I picked it up. I am thinking about going the ceramic coating route too.

Oh that looks so nice Steve :ok: and I'm please the wait is finally over for you mate :-D and your racking up those miles :drive:

Ceramic coating route?

You could always sit on a cushion....shorty ;)
The standard seats are actually a tighter/snugger fit on the bolsters than the shell. Which surprised me.

LOL. I am short and like sitting high up.

I know, I was quite surprised just how tight the standard seats are and for someone my size (short and thin!) they are perfect.

I hadn't heard of it before Terry, but a lot of guys on the MK3FRS forum have had it done. Its supposed to be very good and offers excellent paint protection but can still be polished to get a nice deep shine. Seems to be about £350-£400 done.

Looks lovely, best colour too imho :-)

LeMans Scotty. With 130 miles on the clock lol. So managed to put another 600 on in its first week :-D

Looks mint, love the colour!

If you do go for the ceramic coating Steve will be interested to hear what you think of 9. Anything that helps keep my car clean!

I had miyabi and ism ceramic coating put on my Audi when Offset Detailing had it for the week. Works well :ok:

We have just got a 16 plate one all marked up delivered to Hastings this week going to try and get the keys and have a go

ive seen this flying around

A jam jar one ?

Very nice Steve, looks gorgeous are you pleased with it?

Chuffed with it Craig. Its the closest thing to the scoob to drive that I have driven. Stick it in sport and with a bit of throttle stabbing the pops and bangs are great fun. Its pretty much glued to the road and very composed.

Very nice, Steve. Enjoy!!

Excellent sounds like a good bit of kit. If ever your my way pop in and show it off 👍
