    Mid life Crisis pt 2

    Swapped my T5 for a Ford Focus RS today 0-60 in under 5 seconds! Going to get a service and a few bits and bobs done, will be ready on Saturday. If anyone needs me Sunday, you may find me upside down in a ditch somewhere in north Dorset

    Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

                  Nice, have fun, my brother had an escort cosworth almost 30 years ago. Out of the factory it did 0-60 in just under 6 seconds. So it seems Ford have improved performance by a massive 1 second in 30 years.

                    once you factor in the the Ford ASBO weights maybe twice as much as the Cossie, that 1 seconds is mightily impressive for a cheap road car.
