Finally bought one!

[luke2607]

As per title, I've finally bought myself an RS. A few of you may have seen me lurking about for the past few months, looking for the 172 to buy.

Went to view my first one yesterday and fell in love with it, its an absolute minter for its age and I cant wait to pick it up in a few weeks.

You lot probably recognise it as the lad who sold it to me if a regular on here so I believe.

Anyway, heres what Ive sold....

and heres the one I pick up in a few weeks.

Pretty nice upgrade I think, cannot wait to pick it up

Lovely Quiksilver! I had one as my first car in 2005 - W496 SKX - so very similar number plate!

The 172 looks smart! Enjoy it - I've had my 182 a month and loving it!

Thanks Jun.

Unless you drive everywhere in 1st and 2nd gear petrol consumption is surprising low on RS's. Nice motor by the way

Petrol is not bad on these at the moment...
Depends how you drive it, a bit of spritied driving and normal day to day driving will see around the 35 ish mpg.
