Fuckin lovely car! He's only 21. Just got it on Thursday there, brought it up thurs night to show me and take me a spin in it. Such a great quality, well built motor. Hes had the biggest grin on his face for weeks because hes been getting it, and rightly so! He came from a 180bhp fiesta ST to this:

I can think of many ways that someone commited with time on their hands around age 18 could earn enough to buy it outright by the time they are 21.

He had placed an order on a new Focus RS but cancelled it when he saw this. Its a 08 plate, 1 owner, cost £32k new, only about 12k on it, got it for £23.5k

I love it. But tell your mate not to get big headed over it. Audi drivers are turning into BMW/Merc drivers.

He chose a good colour too!!!
