oh i do an im not sayin its a bad car but if that was my interest id be on a toyota site or somethin or maybe even ph, im just confused i thought this site was for ford enthusiasts

AzE_B

coz we got jap car's dont mean we cant be into ford's as well

Miller 3

iTrader: (4)

well there is plenty of rooms for specific cars so i think its good to have something thats not the norm

el_man

not being funny mate but im not the only jap person here i`ve had a couple of fords and wont be my last just coz my cars jap does mean im not aloud to be on a ford site, i am on a toyota site but i also like this site i`ve been signed up for abit but just not posted till the other day, its nice to see views on my car and also get help when needed as this site is far more popular than the toyota one but everyone is aloud to say what they think

liam-rst

iTrader: (1)

in that case why call it passionford? an rs200 would be somethin thats not the norm, im not slatin the fellas car as im sure its very nice just his choice of places to post it,

el_man

looks interesting, think i might give go-tech ago

JonnyBravo

Looks a nice car mate, I attended the Toyota Sprint Series meet at Rockingham a few weeks ago and some of those Starlets were flying !

JonnyBravo

iTrader: (4)

clarke5700

mate im not going to lye but i would say 75% of ford owners i speak to agree that fords are crap as well as i do but yet there is sumink about them
