Default Graffiti tunnel pictures (+pops and bangs video)

I know it's not very "Passionford" as it's not a 30 year old Cosworth (it's got a Cosworth head if that counts?) but thought I'd share.

Nipped by the St Neots grafitti tunnel Sunday for a few snaps. Would have been better if it were darker rather than the middle of the day:

(A couple of different cameras / settings used to get different saturations etc)



















Stealth grey?


Would be daft not to give it a few revs when under a bridge:

Just waiting in the shade whilst the other half took some of hers:






Well I like it

Fog light - Some owners want to change the rear diffuser for a USA one as their car doesn't have it but I kind of like it now.

Can't think of anything that relates to the 2.3 engine that begins with X..

Maybe I beat him to the Turbo reg..

It's awesome mate - loosens up nicely after 1000 miles, almost as though the boost is restricted before then. Very capable in all departments.

Lovely pics. I got one a few weeks back now. Same spec as yours and I LOVE it! I've only done about 800 km and I'd say it's definitely getting more boost as the km go on. It's a bit strange!

It's good fun isn't it!!

Could also be the engine just loosening up a bit and stretching it's legs. Mines on 2100 miles now and flying.

Cool pics, do they pop and bang that much out of the factory, or have you had it mapped or something?

Got to be better than the Rotas or Fifteen52 types that seem to be going on

Completely standard. When it's vaguely warmed up and in Sport mode, it'll do that around 4000 revs all day.

(Although I didn't do it once at Ford Fair as I'm not a twat)

All the revving and banging at FF was so annoying, not sure who it impresses.
Kids may be.....
