you will be pleasently impressed, interior is leagues ahead in terms of quality and style from the cossie, and the handling runs rings round the cossie aswell. get a 350 quid remap like a Dreamscience and your running stg 3 cossie torque 330 lb/ft and 270 brake without even opening the bonnet :)

Mr Brannen 27-03-2009 06:09 PM

little girls first birthday beef, i only got there last year cause hayley was still in hospital after having her,heidi was born at 8 in the morning and I was at Scotch Corner at fuckin 1 in the afternoon. LOL

Just bought a set of brand new custom floor mats with "FOCUS ST" embroided in electric orange for it, thats all i`ll be getting for it, whos the best for the dream science if i want it later on down the line

Glenn_ 30-03-2009 07:12 AM

I bet them matts werent cheap mate.Get it chipped now you know you want to.

Dave Henshall 30-03-2009 12:34 PM

new - i got mine off collins in congleton, or performance deals do them at a good price.

if you register with the owners club (in my back window) you get a discount direct from dreamscience.

secondhand, there are a few about in the items for sale on there.

I know of a couple of other that went, all before 20k too.

Mine was just making lots of noise at speed and under engine braking.

Dreamscience often have some refurb'd unit too, which cost less. Thats what I bought and its been fine.
