    Good to be back!...

    Hello all

    I am still the content owner (with a few bits still planned to do) of a mkII Golf vr6 having always wanted one for around 5 years BUT i think i will own one more GT Turbo (that'll be my 4th) before going for the car which i've always wanted to own since getting my license... a Saph Cossie!

    I've joined all sorts of clubs from SXOC to Edition 38 to vr6oc but RTOC still rocks the best!

    I've eliminated owning a red or white GT Turbo (sorry, only my preference) and will look to only own a black phase 2 or a Raider

    In my GT Turbo ownership there had been some great guys on here to give advice and help out when needed

    I can never seem to shake it off!

    Yeah it's the best combination for the vr6 lump as i've had the mk3 Golf and Corrado but the mk2 flies.

    It can feel a bit nose heavy but the naturally aspirated 6 cylinders sing!

    But the only downside to the vr is fuel!

    Oh yes Mike, you helped me out with a few needed parts at the time when i used to come to Ace Cafe to get them off you, its been a while!

    Knowing you have a 3 door whale-tail Cossie makes you even more of a sound gezzer!

    oh my! the registration on the Sierra is awesome, cant be many moonstone blue 3 door Sierra Cosworth's left? They were rare in that colour in the first place right?

    The Escort Cosworth is another beauty, it still looks modern even after nearly 20yrs!!

    Them wedding ribbons could be re-used as i could marry anyone of them 2 cars

    Welcome back, I love RS's too never owned a cossie but had a nice Series 2 in black when I was 18 untill a rod blew through the block on the motorway .

    I am another one of them who was missing the 5 bug and just got my latest ph2 GTT in pearl white.

    Good luck with the hunt
