Sorry to hear it Adam. It was a good car, and you kept it immaculate. It was an absolute credit to you

Just a thought:

Keep your parts and buy another LR Zetec. Then 5 years of knowledge won't go to waste, you'll know exactly how to modify it, and what mods you want. (eg Footwell lighting will take 5 minutes)

Just a thought!

I would want another Focus. But I want a house more. So I think I will stick to something a bit older and "Focus" on a house more

Whats under that I can't see I dunno. But I'm ok and thats the main thing. I will get pictures for you guys tomorrow when I get see my car.

Well done Adam.....this should be good for ribbing you for at least 6 months.

First Matt, now you. Into the XR Falcon's.





And please boys, no jokes about size of genitals and inadequacies etc. That's just a cheap shot!!!!!

Steve sorry to disappoint you, but its not 'FULLY '

I bought it with 136,000km on the clock, stock as a rock with all the factory options of sunroof, cruise control and premium sound (with 8" paper cone subwoofer, which my old 6" splits would rip)
