Deano,
Not taking any thing away from Rods success before any says otherwise.......

If you actually read my post it has IMO (in my opinion)
You are entitled to yours as am I.

Just because I dont like porches doesnt mean I am talking shit !
I am Ford thru and thru which is a rare thing these days on this website.

Do you have any idea what 178.8mph feels like in a Fiesta? 2000 lb of pressure per square inch per second pushing back on your face. It feels like god himself is trying to rip the skin off your skull while someone lands a 747 on your chest.
A bit of an exadgeration, more like tyre smoke , in my opinion !

PMSL - Not even too sure what your talking about to be honest but one things for sure , your opinion is based TOTALLY on a something that was posted as a complete humourous joke as everyone can see. Worst thing is your opinion means nothing unless you have actually experienced what you are talking about.

It's very clear that you seem to be very obsessed with opinions since touching the subject with me and Deano aren't you mate? Pity most of yours so far mean fuck all (oh.....that was in my opinion ofcourse).
