When do I get to go in it

Most MK5s had it mate, anything LX upwards will have it, as well as some lower spec ones (like mine!), so shouldn't be too hard to pick one up cheap!

I know what you mean, most breakers don't seem to bother keeping MK5s anymore. Last one I went to said they just crush 'em straight off; more space for another Focus that way! Bad times!

Fuck 'em, if you walk in front of a car you deserve to get injured

This car has endless amounts of swagger! Fast, & looks the dogs! Can't wait to see what the Saff is gonna be like!

Still can't believe what it used to be! And how fast it is now!

Although Astra Diesels beat it all day long!!!!
