Re: VIN PLATES
Yes, there is but Ford are trying to stop this going on, hence why i cant just go but one anymore!!!
Was told its to do with ringing etc, and the main person who used to do them vintags.co.uk or something like that, has just been threatened with a massive fine and had to give all his stock back to ford as a copyright infringement!!!

Re: VIN PLATES
I'm sure I only have 2 mate, one for rs one for xr, but I didn't bother changing the rs one in the end, so the other would be for the xr, but I might have another floating about somewhere lol
As for stamping them, I don't know anyone that could do it got you, I was going to buy some reversed stamping tools and malt my own jig but as I didn't do one for the rs it still remains a thought in my mind

Re: VIN PLATES
i got a new one from that vin tags place a while ago and although they didnt do a specific fiesta rs turbo one, the escort rs turbo series 1 was a pretty good match, but to be honest, it looks s**t!!! like i made it myself and won a blue peter badge for effort! so i put the old original one back on after a fruitless search
