Default The new car

Finally picked it up last Saturday after having what was the longest week of my life

Not a Ford as I fancied something different. Cheaper than an Escy Cossie in the same nick.

Cheers

Matt

STI 8, fantastic car, good engine unlike the classic scoobs, spend around a grand on that on a k&n panel filter, de-cat, cat back system & an ecutek remap & you'll be 330-350bhp, less transmission loss than a 4x4/escort cossie & much better handling
as much as i like fords i'm not blinkered
