Welcome Michael, what part of the country are you in, or more particularly, where did the car come from?

Nice one. As previously stated, the RS motorsport forum should be able to help you out with any history questions.

I've owned a few RS2000s over the years and they are the best fun. Going to be buying another one soon...well a replica, but a mint car nonetheless.

Post more pics, especially when you get out on the track.
