*OLD SCHOOL BOOST* MK3 FIESTA RS TURBO REVIEW *THE OG BOY RACER WEAPON*

The 90’s were a golden age for hot hatches and I’m driving one of the hottest.
A boy racers wet dream back then was owning one of these. Notoriously expensive to insure due to being so “popular” to steal and joyride.
Now rising in value is this the year for you to buy a Fiesta RS Turbo?
The car I review today is relatively stock aside from a T3 turbo and LSD gearbox from an Escort RST. ECU has been tweaked to run correctly with the different turbo.
Car is currently for sale. Offers around 11k will buy the car please contact (david_burr88_) on his Instagram for more information on the car. Thank you so much Dave for letting me take your immaculate car out. You wouldn’t believe it’s 30 years old. Really enjoyed it on the channel!

That lag must be due to the bigger turbo! My "standard" Fiesta RS Turbo had very little lag.....loads of torque steer though!

[@MaxSpeedMike]

That turbo sounds gnarly! The song goes so well with the look of the car. Makes me want to drive while listening to some old school jams, while I hit boost, driving at midnight. Too bad we don't have these in the states.

[@CJK20]

That’s why I choose bro. That old school vibe..... thanks for watching man

[@MaxSpeedMike]

I must say, it's truly enjoyable watching you drive and give your opinions. More of this please!

[@CJK20]

I intend too! Glad you liked that element of it. I always have heaps of fun driving.

[@kevhulme8595]

Brilliant video had one in the 90"s and loved it , thanks for the memories.

[@CJK20]

No problems anytime. Was a great little car obviously not quick compared to today’s hot hatches but damn sight more fun

[@wazza8146]

Wicked vid man. Good too see you driving. cheeky little bit of B road bashing in a classic 🤘

[@CJK20]

Exactly the best! It was a classic little car in the twistes !

[@andrewmoffatt7046]

Had one back in 95 same colour on a j plate loved it and would swap my GTc for it in a heart beat what a beautiful example yeah not fast by todays standards not well equipped either and non of the driver aids of modern cars but for looks standing out in a crowd and overall smiles on faces great car 🚗

[@jarrydevans5324]

Nice vid mate really refreshing to see you behind the wheel and give a solid review. Keep it up buddy

[@CJK20]

Thanks man, thought I’d give it a go! Glad you enjoyed. Obviously if more owners let me I’d gladly do it again.

[@richardweeds9566]

My 2nd car! Fun, skitty, torque steer, dump valve, 4” pipe, K&N 57i and a boot full of ICE.

[@raptortestsandsuch]

My first car was a Mk3 Fiesta (not RS, nor XR2i, obviously) and it was so much fun. No power steering, no ABS, no nothing - fun as hell. This thing is another level, of course. I'd kill to have one to play with now, money just doesn't permit.

[@TheMeesterNoob]

A trip down memory lane 👍 awesome videos as always bud

[@CJK20]

Awesome! Thanks for the kind words mate

[@leeelliott175]

Bad arse motor, always was and always will be, I remember these cars,I always liked the RS1800 also, nice to see the turbo out and about, a rare treat

[@JACKSPEED_TV]

Seen a fair few fiesta turbos and 2i,s on bricks on my way to school. Them was the days police chases every night. One of the older lads crashed in to a house in a RS1800 fun times 😂 great vid as always pal 👍

[@CJK20]

Thanks man appreciate it. Yeah I can imagine back in the day these were just real desirable.

[@tomparkin6924]

Another mint video mate - these Mk3s are creeping in value too, my brother sold his old one back in the day for absolute peanuts.

[@CJK20]

Thanks Tom. So this was 11k with 70k miles which for 30 year old car I’d call low mileage lol. BUT to get top dollar ie 15-18k for these need to be totally original. Air box, the T2 turbo stock box everything. Mods actually lower this cars value regardless of bodywork being mint

[@nickhowarthracing]

Definitely keep up the content mate, really well shot and put together video, with some great information about the car! Nice work

[@CJK20]

Thanks Nick, really appreciate it buddy. I try to always include something informative. Kinda want my videos to have a little value in that sense. Thanks for comment mate

Spent a few years in the back of one of these dad was a proper boy racer bad boy bonnet neons the lot loved it I want to get one to relive it

[@ChlorophilG]

Great Video! Bought back lots of old memories too! You can't beat an old car for feedback and involvement, i know what you mean about them being easy to break into, you didn't even need a tool for it the scallies just yanked the door panel back from the window and pulled the plastic latch, i saw two in the pub carpark like that once on the same night.

[@CJK20]

Hey mate, thanks for watching! Yeah back in the quick small car easy to target and steal. It’s amazing what these things are worth these days.

[@ChlorophilG]

@@CJK20 Absolutely! I bet we all wish we had held onto some of our old cars now, could have made a penny. I remember looking through the trader seeing Mini's, 205 XS Gti's, Renault 5' turbos, capri's all going for a grand or two, these days they are 10 grand cars. Time flies!

For sure. Was a memorable experience to drive. 90s was a great era for cars

😂😂😂such a cool retro car

[@martytdd1606]

I remember me and my buddies checking out one of these back in 1991. It was on display on a plinth inside our local bowling ally. Not sure what the correct factory colour name is but it was green and it really suited it. Can't believe that was nearly 30 gears ago lol.

[@CJK20]

That’s amazing Marty. Time just goes too quickly

[@jamielearmonth1039]

Didn't make them in green. May have been late 1992 and have been a rs1800 in mallard green

[@matthewnicholas6365]

I learned to drive in a mk3 Fiesta. Instructor thought it was funny to say "aaand into 6th" as I got to 70 on the A13. He wouldn't have been laughing if I hadn't stopped myself at the second

[@markonmotoring]

Really polished video and agree completely about all the points made. Cars from that era are fun and sadly will never be built again. That's why I now favour my 90s car. Even my modern daily is a car that deals a bit more like a modern interpretation of an old warm hatch. This one takes me back as about 20 years ago a work colleague (who would have never been able to insure an RS) had a replica that was actually a diesel pop plus.

[@CJK20]

Thanks for taking the time to comment buddy :)

[@markonmotoring]

@@CJK20 No problem. I know how much effort goes into making this kind of content. Still very much finding my way with it myself. This was enjoyable and definitely my era.

[@daz4643]

Bought mine for £1900 in 2001. Little pocket rocket. Recaro's hugged you like an old mate. Put a mongoose stainless on it. Chipped to 165bhp and big radiator. These were terrible for running hot. Ford chopped the rad down to fit the intercooler in 🤭. Had no turbo lag though little T2 spun up straight away. I went in a mate of mines 1900cc tall block cvh engined one and wow it was even better. Cost him a few grand for the conversion though.

[@lsvlestudiovaillant5223]

I'm a great fan of this car !!!!!!!

[@Kaalvandaal]

Nice car. Real 90s hothatch. Beautiful👍🏼

[@CJK20]

Hey Danny thanks for your comment! They’re a stunning little car loads of fun

[@maldonboy1]

I had a MK3 1.6 Sport back in the 90s, except for some good NGK plugs and a stainless steel exhaust I some how got 113 bhp out of it! I'm considering a MK3 Fiesta in the next year or so, an RS1800 would be my dream but I reckon an XR2i or the RS Turbo is more than likely!

[@itswais77]

Looks lovely 😍😍😍

[@CJK20]

It’s out of this world man!

[@rhettharris2520]

I had one of these in around 1996. I'm pretty sure it was 'chipped' as it pulled really hard. It was a lot faster than my Dad's Escort RS Turbo. I run a Suzuki Swift Sport today. Still haven't grown up. I also had a 205 GTI and 1990 Mini Cooper with the 1275. For a new car the Swift gets really close to the spirit of those old school hatches.

[@e9jkw868]

Was enjoyable to watch you actually drive the car.. Think you should take the EK9 for a day instead of having me there.

[@CJK20]

You sure mate? Could deffo use your help to do the fly bys etc bro

[@nitchus1528]

I had one in the 90's, loads of fun but a deathtrap, brakes were very bad, cheesy handling but it spinned its wheels in third😁 I remember a roadtrip with a mate, cruisin through france and italy at speeds they would hang you know. Good times

[@michaellecky6438]

Do it now ,trust me I left mine in the garage for 10 years and if I hadn’t started restoring it now the rust would gone to far and parts for it would have been impossible to find.

Only thing missing on that is a mongoose 4" exhaust the turbo burble my mates use to make on idle was just to die for give me one of these over a new st anyday. Great honest review.👌👌👌

[@CJK20]

I agree. Something about those exhausts. I know exactly the look you mean! Appreciate the feedback mate

[@ManilvaRS]

The rule back in the day was.. if you can’t fist it, you can’t fit it! 2020 needs more fisting. Keep the faith.

These cars if you are my age will never be replicated, these cars are how you learnt to drive, none of the modern features of new cars. Four wheels a seat an engine and a steering wheel. A heavy right foot and loads of ball's, forget the middle pedal it never worked. Personally I thought the 205 gti was the best of the bunch, I was lucky enough to own one, but only a 1.6 and not the 1.9, it handled like a go-cart, it's impossible to have as much fun in modern car's, they have no spirit and are all bland and mundane, too many assists and driver aids.

I bought mine from Ford main dealer Ruislip UK, mine was also in red and was registered on August the 1st 1991 on a J plate (J46KLY) and this was eventually stolen from right outside the front of my house sometime in the early hours. I never heard a thing 😞. Looking back now I was crazy to purchase it as it really was a piece of crap and very over-rated. Moved to a Peugeot 205GTI 1.9 for a while then on to a 4 x 4 sapphire cosworth in gray with black leather. Played around with a Vauxhall calibra for a while too then on to a Rover 800 vitesse saloon 4 door. Ended up with a Porsche 911, 3.0 targa with a turbo body.
