Takes me back 10 years when they did similar with a red S197 GT :)

Hey buddy

Any chance you can take a higher resolution photo of the article and post it up, the text is to small for me to read and when I zoom in it is just blurry. :(

He's been a bit unlucky with the little faults and has paid nearly £2k more than me yet mine was new :D

Interesting. So the EU cars are 410hp/391tq instead of the 435hp/400tq we get here in the states? I did not know that.

Yep, that's down the modified RHD exhaust manifold. It's more restrictive as it was close to the steering column :(

Only affects GT cars remember and us who have changed the exhausts are still down on power compared with the boys/girls across the pond with the same exhaust upgrades because of that stupid manifold.

Cheers TT, that's another £4 I've had to fork out on Autocar!! Reading it now on the train - he certainly seems to like it:clap2:

He has grapefruit-sized balls to have bought an ex demo with 900miles though, no wonder it's had a few issues!!

ND65 BKX?
Purchased at Lookers Ford Sunderland as an ex-demo?

This is the Mustang a dealer slid sideways into a wall. He's just paid £36k for a repaired car. :lol:

Its why the rear lug was loose because it needed new suspension fitted. :lol:

Official figures are 416ps for UK/RHD mustang which is just over 410 (mechanical)hp. LHD Euro models are 421ps (just over 415hp) which is quite a difference to the US quoted 435.
