hocks look fine but fuck me he's clearly got to put his stamp on it as every cunt and their dog think they know everything about the car. Just look above for info re engine/interior/paint run! jesus!
I own the car its now 0ver 500 bhp with lots of new parts, running nice image split rims and now been freshed up and mint ready for 2009 show season. Looking so good thanks to cossiedaves spray talent and my fine touches
it was around 500bhp iirc and was involved in a few top speed shoot outs in circa 2001 and was one of the fastest at the time doing approx 173mph?!
motor mouth will be on here to quote how "slow" it really was
Actually pal it was total shite as a Topspeed car got its ass tanned bigtime by the likes of Mike r & Bruce, nice it may be but fast it aint. Nowhere near 500bhp I guess at 450bhp tops.

it did happen, but was a long time ago.got stolen stripped and found,all in the same area ,no damage to the car though
I still have the old Fast Ford where it mentioned that, I used to love the car, as said it may not have been the fastest but there was just something about it, if I remember rightly the car was owned by George something or other at the time.
Couldn't agree more buddy why do all the threads turn to shite on here ELE is a very nice car and is very well know in the ford world! literly everyone knows of it, and who the fuck cares if it wont ever do 200mph its a good all round car

Who cares if its not done 180mph or what the history of the car is. ELE is a gorgeous car with lots of special touches that still look stunning today. CossyKing look forward to seeing the car again this year, really is a stunner you have got yourself but you dont need me to tell you that.
do you realise how hard the headmaster is going to spank you now?
btw your car didnt crack 180 so its not 500bhp
when it done top speed it may not of been 500 bhp, but its had more done now and it is. i will also prove later on in the year it will make a top speed of more than 180 mph. this car was not built for top speed runs its just a good alrounder. if i wanted a top speed car i would build one !!!

quite agree mate its quick but if i wanted it to do 200 mph i would make it, but i dont. or buy something that was made to do 200 mph not something thats going to blow up !!!

try it...
you may then understand how difficult it actually is...
and you may also realise rod does have the power he claims....because you need it to acheive the speed he has.
500bhp 180mph engines are piss easy to build, it gets interesting over 600 though.
it takes alot of time, money and effort to acheive what rod has with his car, and his car has kept this scene interesting for me for many many years. i personally cant wait to see it run this year.
anyone can just go and by one already done.
you may thoink rods arrogant on here, but thats your opinion, personally i think the guys a fookin legend,,,and you cant argue with the numbers his car produces at brunters

i no what it involves mate im not dissing that, but my cars not built for top speeds thats not what i want it for. i have built my other cars up from standard and am quite capible of building what ever i want, but i got this car as its a nice 3 door and thats what i wanted. it was cheaper for me to buy it than build it myself. "see my point"
WoW haven't seen one of these threads on here in a while, it's got everything in it, arguements, wild claims of theft and bad history and comparisons to totally different specced cars.. Personally i couldn't really give 2 tosses. It's a nice car, and it's fast I don't see why people have to pick holes in things just for the sake of it.
