It’ll be fine 100 miles at 100 miles an hour wouldn’t even touch one of these motors, even when new:D

There’s a school of thought that running cars in to gently, causes bore glazing and poor performance later on.
100 miles of drifting or track use however, may have :lol:

Hi guys quick question how do you know if a car has sync2 or sync3? The car i am collecting says it has sync2 but i thought all cars with the antenna block on the roof near the rear window means it has sync3?

So I finally picked up my Mustang on Wednesday and I have to say the car drives much better than I was expecting, the handling and whole feel of the car is fantastic. I'm taking it steady for the first few hundred miles or so but I can feel the torque difference compared to my zed already. When the weather is good enough I will get some pictures up!

Ian..by the time they prep it..(IF its a brand new one) That takes then 2 weeks. Tell them you want it 1st March registered..and pick it up then..

Thats what i did.. picked it up 2nd jan, so at least 2018.. I didnt want to miss out on my colour choice etc., ;)

Due to a combination of things and my nearest dealer 80 miles away in Inverness. It’s going to be the beginning of March before I can do something about it, I’ve never done a deal for a car over the phone, but that’s just me.
So probably 1st April, less chance of grit & salt on the road by then....
