I CAN SAY I DID SOMETHING WITH IT TODAY.


I got my ford 7 day insurance ready and filled the form out.
Dealer taxed the car now.

How's it feel compared to the 370? Acceleration wise? I loved the way my HR350 shifted so hoping it feels a lot better. Won't lie, I was a little underwhelmed on my test drive but it was wet and I was quite nervous so that had a lot to do with it.
the car is deceptively quick - floor it and you think our doing 90 but your doing 120 - fit a loud exhaust and you know you are doing 120 and so will half of south hampshire!

give me a bell I will take you out for a ride, have not scared anyone shitless for a few days

I find it quite civilised at lower revs.

Mate, you'll be amazed :D The weather up here is shit at the moment, together with unscrubbed rubber, it's not conducive for 'spirited' driving at the mo. In saying that, I had a little throttle tickle in second tonight and it threw me back in the seat, took me by surprise really :D

The 370 is plenty rapid, progressively rapid, but this turns the volume up to 11 :headbang:

I'm off Friday, Sturday, once I fit my splash guards and fettle the FRPP strut brace to fit, I'm going on a bit of a run, to scrub in and get comfortable with it.

Exhaust on Tuesday, Track Pack to follow rapid ;)

Led day today....;)

Did the map lights:thumbsup:






Also did reverse and rear fog lights



And the boot light, but the fuse was blown, and I haven't got a spare, (they're Micro 2) and not one spare unused fuse in the fuse box.....that's a bit mean Mr Ford:mad:

Those Micro MM2 fuses are impossible to get hold of! Even the stealers can't get them.
I might bring a load back with me from the states later in the year

I got insults hurled at me :thumbsup:

No, really. Someone shouted across the car-park at a local Argos at me. He said "did you buy that car for your tiny dick!?" - Without thinking I immediately responded with "no, I can just afford nicer things than you!" Kinda regret saying that, kinda don't care :lol: He was driving a crappy renault clio, or a van (was standing in-between them smoking a tab). He was not pleased. :lol:

And just five minutes ago I was coming around a roundabout, bloke with the full backwards cap treatment in a Nissan note screamed "you look gay in that [mustang]!" - I just belted out laughing and floored it up the dual carriageway. :lol:

So its been an interesting day. :D
