Default how disapointing ?

was any one else abit pissed off that ford couldnt even bring along a new focus rs as a static display to national day after the rsoc plastered pictures of it all over the place i thought they could of atleast made an effort for the people that are actually going to buy it.
I know they said on the day that its not queit ready for production but that didnt stop them at the motor show.I seem to remember on a top gear a while ago vw made a special golf using bentley and lambo bits just for a vw show ford couldnt even manage a static car.

They would have said no. There is only one, and it's going round the world to major motorshows. They said no to Ford fair, despite having a sizeable stand there.

They'll sell every one they make without having it at shows though. It's still a missed opportunity IMHO.
