he wasn't happy

none of them new fangled corners or anyting just flat out drag from stand still

You being naughty again Ben??????

They're only 220 Brake after all!!!!

me?? naughty?? never!!

was funny though :P

I remeber chasing one in my C!!! Was giving him a good run for his money too......then my cylinder head gasket went pop!!! Oops!

d'oh!

lol, glad you had fun, are they only 220bhp? thought they had more.

no, bu they are very good in corners. would murder me round a track

Don't they have the torque limited a bit as well, they had trouble getting the power down through the FWD IIRC.

'only' 220 bhp but can put it down very well.

'only' 220 bhp but can put it down very well.

maybe wasnt the best phrase

they have an LSD fitted as std! makes them a pig on the road but Ace of a flat piece of tarmac such as a racetrack!!!

nop they are only 212

good to hear.

bengies is no ordinary 4x4

exactly, its dirty like the tractor it is

They do look very understated too (although not seen Bengies) - bet he was reaching for his Auto Express or What Car to find out what could have possibly been under the bonnet :P

I think he would have been hoping to murder a skoda estate in a straight line

i wonder if the sight of my towbar annoyed him :confused:

220 bhp for hatchback isn't something you can regard as 'only'. That's a good amount of power for a small car. When it kicks in is the question you need to ask because like the Type-R, it could kick in a bit late in the rev range..the Type-Rs max power & torque kick in real late in the rev range.

Bengie...you must have had one hell of a laugh

i think the RS is awesome and would have had one if they didn't cost soo much, just found it funny that we were about even, probably annoyed the focus driver.

How many horsies is your all wheeler again?

One or two touchy Ford owners on there, especially the ones with ST170's

Of course they are...they think it's a sh**y brand...but they shouldn't forget the cars they need to fix or replace daily.
