Default How quick is a Carrera 4 S *title eddited*

Just had a play with one on the local test track *ahem* . He only just had the legs on my old Escort. Think he was a little surprised at having a FWD Escort biting at his heels on full chat

Nice guy though we were having a chat while waiting for the lights to go green (seeing as we had both done a complete detour from where we were sposed to be going Top bloke though

This was an 05 plate so it would be the 300bhp then.

Hopefully see the guy again once the old girl is set up properly. Rob@SCC seems to think there is more to come from her

May have just been an S then Was more worried about looking where I was going at *70mph* than reading the back. Absolutely definately said Carrera 4 though.

Police man: So what was the cause of the accident.

Me: I was reading his bootlid when he brought it closer to me to read more easily
