Default Look what i've just got...

Picked this up 3 hours ago, nice replacement for the Boxster that got written off 3 weeks ago
Needs a wash, other than that i'm well impressed so far! Reminds me of my chipped S1 RST I had 11 years ago!

So far....in a straight line the Focus would have it, especially at 80+, on a twisty road i'm not sure yet, roads are too damp to have a play. But the Boxster was only the 2.5, I think the 3.2 would murder the FRS easily. Guess i'll have to find out

The roads at the moment dont do the FRS justice. Wait till they are dry and the FRS comes into its own. It sticks like a limpet. Amy mods on it yet?

You're 110% spot on there! Driving it last night, scrabbly as fook and very torque steery, just like the old S1. Can't wait for the dry roads, takes some getting used to after mid-engine RWD.
No mods......yet.
