@@olliecostley8758 here in the netherlands a proper ST is around the 10-15k range, while an RS is more in the 30-35k range. I was wondering if an RS is well worth the 20k more. I'm looking to buy either one of them, but i'm not sure which one. Money isn't a problem, just patience i guess...

@@olliecostley8758 all personal opinion and I dunno what the poster meant but for me I like the MK2 RS looking OEM+ with big power. So the alloys aren’t to my taste, I much prefer the factory ones. Your car though so respect to you for doing what you like. The MK2 RS imo is a shouty car anyway, the best of the 3 RS’s but it just looks so good with not much doing to the exterior. Lowered slightly, possibly bigger brakes, big power with a syvecs, kinda all you need. Lovely car though.
