      Enough already! How many times a day do you mention this?

      Not having doubts are you?

      I mean, a diesel Ford Focus, great choice right? Anyone?

        I almost bought a Focus ST until I saw it only came in varying degrees of chavdom, unless you shell out more for the ST3 with leather. Are Ford taking the piss by putting those awful seats in the ST1 and 2, or do they just know their target market very well?

          Very true.

          Wonder what the angle will be? Oxygen tax once all the rainforests are depleted, and they suddenly realise it's in short supply? Maybe that's why there's so little action being done to stop the destruction.

              Thanks. I blame school for forcing GCSE English on me. They gave me an English teacher that wore tight skirts and kept dropping the chalk. I was never late for one of her lessons!

                  We forgive you.

                  As regarding the car, what would be more impressive is if they somehow managed to recompress the air as it left the engine so it was self powering.

                    Yeah, use a petrol powered air re-compressor... I can see it now...

                      As opposed to the seats in the classless/classy VW Golf GTI??
                      Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson
