Nice car Doc Thumbs Up
They are all snobs, they'd buy a dumper truck if the badge was right and then extol its virtues on the handy size of its front boot.

United Kingdom 2010 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Auto Rimini Red

As stated our FL2's are Ford, Volvo, Pug and god knows what else....... Just as well or LR would not have improved build quality and reliability...... Not a fan of Fiestas but I think, for once, the Doc is right........ JT Upgraded to an ex demo, 7 mth old, Rimini Red/Ebony Napoli Auto HSE on 28th Jan 2011, added roof rails, mudflaps and side strips.
Gone - A great 57 Plate, Auto SE, Bought Feb 2009, Roof Rails and Mudflaps added on purchase. Blue colour, anything but drug dealer black.....

Oh dear Shocked

Even the SD4 isn't fast enough to be worthy of a 'racing' stripe. It would need to be a tweaked i6 but even then it would still look daft.

I used to own a Fiesta ST but decided not to opt for one with stripes Laughing Nippy little car. 2.0 NA Petrol, 150bhp, 142 lb ft torque, 0-60 7.9 and top speed 130mph (which I did, on an autobahn of course)


Less than a second quicker, but only on a dry road Whistle
