Oh, Ferrari bodykit, I thought they had turned it into a Peugeot.

It could, but don’t be surprised if legislation turns against engines which pollute when they are, at least in built up areas.

For the second generation (Euro only) Focus, Ford found they didn’t have anything suitable for the ST, so they stole a Volvo engine and shoehorned it in.

I’m glad I’m not the only person who has ever called it that.

As far as I’m concerned that’s just nostalgia speaking, if you are just going to complain that they should have gone with the engine configuration of a previous car, then maybe you should just have stuck with the previous car. I understand how people might think a certain car fits best with a certain engine, I’m not…

Even if you do the unthinkable (okay, we were all thinking it) and don’t recondition the original engine, just replace it with something easier to manage, it’s still a sweet little ride. NP from me.

A spider the size of a truck can call itself anything it likes.

I’m disappointed with all of you commentors, no-one has stated that they are pretty sure it’s a Lambo or that his tire pressures were off. Shame on you in this climate.

Can someone double check the answer to section 1 Q4?

Meanwhile Koeningsegg are sticking a 3-cylinder engine in their newest latest mental-mobile.

Is that temperature gauge in increments of 100 degrees centigrade?

I read that as “at the cost of $400,000 a poop”.

Flying buttresses, gull-wing doors and a rotary engine?  They only had to give it six wheels to make it the perfect car.

There’s no way the actual show could live up to that intro, but it makes me ache for simpler times when the intro was more than a logo that appeared one third of the way through and less than an elaborate abstract piece with a beautiful soundtrack that has very little to do with what you are watching.

Has Zorro left his mark on the side of this car?

Chances are they are only doing this for some emissions thing and don’t expect to actually sell very many.

Bless you.

If you drive too close to a hedgerow do you suck small birds, voles and rabbits into those massive side intakes?

I’m disappointed. Not by the power figures. Not by the mental engineering. Not by the daft doors. But by the little ducktail of a rear spoiler, surely something like this needs a stupendous quadruple-layered wing that moves in six axes and would allow the car to drive on the ceiling under the gravity of Jupiter.

Well, it’s less rusty than that other pick-up you were looking at, and it actually runs, so not your worst purchase.
