Chip, they WOULD put a bounty on your head and hunt you down. You'd end up getting a knock on the door to find a group of nerds wearing coke bottle glasses, tea cosy hats andanoraks and kagools, waiting to make you pay for your crimes

When they first came out a guy in Cardiff bought 2 - one as his everyday company car and the other locked away just to look at
If I remember correctly he part exchanged the last RHD 4x4 saff off the production line for one of them, the local Ford dealer found out about it and snapped it up from the vauxhall dealer and its sat in his dealership workshop ever since

If you look properly at the speedo it's only in KMH so would be 3500 KMS not miles, so would be less than 3500 miles it's done 2174 miles approx
They may be horrible in some peoples opinions but how many Fords ever do 178mph with 377bhp straight from the factory?
not that I'm sticking up for the Vauxhalls like
