Default Is It Wrong....

That I love my cabbie in the same way Maria loves/loved Clive?

Spent the day cleaning her yesterday as she's not had a bucket of soapy water Maguires touch her since she was set-up the day before the TOTD RR day. Its amazing the time, effort and attention i'll put into cleaning the cabbie while the daily runner gets a Kosovo special

The pictures really don't do it justice!!

Ahhh thanks mate

Less is more in my book and its how i envisioned Ford to have done it.

Theres a few bits that need seeing to, but it all works and its reliable

S1 decals are in their box in the garage mate, waiting for the right time to put'em on - although i'm still 50/50 on it

Nooooo!! lol

I think this suits better than the Rs item or even the Orion Rs spoiler used on some cabbies.
