LHD RS2

[Gozzzer]

I am considering buying one partly because I prefer the spec to a RHD ie climate, cruse ( so you dont go too fast on a motorway with out realising !) even the wood trim I live in England.
Has anyone found any problems with maintenace ? parts availability etc presumably most items are the same anyway
Insurance seems to be more expensive has anyone any good leads in this department ?

Cheers

Best insurance i have foundon lhd rs2 was £ 1045.00 with 5y n.c bonus and cat 1 alarm.

That's not bad. It was £1150 for me on a RHD, full+++ ncb, no points etc in Essex RM postcode, £300 more than RS4.
Probably expensive due to the amount that have been stolen for ram raids etc.
As for parts, the LHD specific parts are going to be more plentiful as the majority of cars were LHD, and there are plenty of breakers on the continent.
MCP Motorsport have a tasty looking yellow RS2 for sale at the moment, pretty rare I would have thought.

Cheers

Looks like they may have a small fleet of RS2's on their books soon on "classic policies". [img]images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
