Default Mk6 RS2000

Been thinking for a while and it might be time to sell my RS turbo. I have the chance to buy a standard mk6 RS 2000 with 50k on it. I realise it wont be as fast as the turbo, but it is newer and probably more reliable. Does anyone have any views on these? I take it they are a lot cheaper to run than a turbo?

i drive an rs2000 mk.6 as an everyday motor, to save the miles on the cossie, & its a great little car, when standard its quicker than a standard rs turbo, both on o-60 & top end. not much in it, but its quicker. so, de-cat mongoose & a k&n & 160 bhp is yours!!!!!
