The cossie's replacement is here :)
Since selling the saff I've been itching for another old car as the focus rs just isn't the same as the old school cossie
It's been in storage since 2008 so it's getting a look over and hopefully should be mot'd and on the road by next weekend

Oh my god it feels so bloody slow lol the 176bhp just isn't doing it for me 
Just failed mot on osf dip beam (bulb), osf sidelight (plug off), rear lights have bad earth and emissions high. Just sorted everything except the emissions which they'll adjust when I take it back for retest.
I'm undecided wether to keep it or not now. It'll need a big hike in power and It's a bit too clean for what I want, a couple of mates already said "it won't look like that long with me having it"
I can't help it! I just prefer driving to polishing

mate thats one lovely s1 you have there looks better than most i have seen ..stunner that car is more of a investment so if you want more power you will ruin it lol your used to a nearly 400bhp saff ..ether take care of t or sell it someone that will lol because that wil be worth alot more later .. i have one and feel like putting 320hp through it at time because its so slow being standard ...but then i wont be selling it.. however i dont want to ruin the drive of it its smooth and tight.. big power loosens it up torque steer ..unreliability.. broken gearboxes etc so left it .. i do kill mine though when its out lol heres a pic

Exactly bud! I'd rather not fuck around with it. It's not standard but only minor mods like spax shocks, exhaust, chip and a few polished bits. It's got an updated Gears gearbox in it which should be good for around 250bhp also

The price I got it for I couldn't refuse it really and the fact I'd always wanted a s1 meant I had to buy it lol I was going to sell the focus rs and use the escort but I didn't expect it to be as clean as it is and I don't want to wreck it. I'll probably drive it for a month then sell it and get something rwd and some proper power for a toy and keep the focus for daily dutys
