I've got the Focus up for sale for £600 due to its busted heating, and phones abolutely on fire withe enquiries. The offers aren't even too bad in all honesty.

    I do like getting the all clear from the doctor further to a cancer scare.  Still got lots of problems in my life but at least now I've (hopefully) got a lot of time to deal with them.

  • I do like finally finishing a model kit I first started 5 and a half years ago.  It's a very special model that i was supposed to finish by the time the aircraft took her final flights across the UK

Why you selling it 😢. What's your next upgrade?

Put it up as spares or repairs as the cost to fix is more than the cars worth tbh. Bit gutted, but will probably get another Focus but hopefully in 1.8 or 2.0 flavour.

Get a sporty one 😁. Or why not a fiesta zetec s like mine? Their cheap to get. 

I do like getting this squid dish on my birthday along with other stuff.

I like the Fiesta's, but I find them a bit cramped for me on longer journey's. The Focus offers much more space for my liking, plus I know my way round them quite well.

Well when you're rich enough to buy an RS as your daily driver, you can pop up the road to these guys and spend even more on something for the weekend too!

I'll put you as my second named driver on my insurance to keep it down 😉

Actually want my dad to put me as a second driver on his VW bora 😂

Saw this being pulled behind a light aircraft. 

Photo a bit blurry, but it says  something like " free dope, $1000 worth for free ,just  text 2100"

That's why you get insurance that covers track days :thumbsup:

I encountered a few RSs on track whilst driving my Elise and they're properly rapid. I was always able to hold my own in the corners, but with 58 bhp/tonne more (base spec), there was no keeping up with one over a lap. Now when the 310R arrives I'll have the advantage by 64 bhp/tonne. Mind you, I'll still have a lower top speed (due to 1960s aero), so I think on any of the GP circuits I could still struggle to keep up, especially if any have had the Mountune treatment.

So when does the free dope arrive? :biggrin: 

Not sure I should admit this but I saw Niall Horans new track on Graham Norton last night and really like it...  😳 :biggrin: 

 

Also found out the new 1 Series ad is a real track...nice bit of house with an acid vibe for a Saturday afternoon chillout session there! :wink: 

 

Any other 'new' tracks people are into atm? :smile:

For some reason I come across a lot of yobbos behind the wheel in these RSs. Had one overtake a few cars then couldn't stop tapping the revs on the move. Sounds like it wasn't his

It’s a car that does make you drive like a yobbo, unbelievable in the corners.

Also I think I have a new car! It’s a 1.0 125ps Fiesta ST-Line in Chrome Blue!

Or it could be the "y" is missing off the banner. And snow white is holding dopey to randsom!!!! 

Or trump is being given away to any country that will have him.
