Was it a race?
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

it really is ridiculously fast, but it brakes awesomely too. The handling is superb and you can adjust rebound simply but dialling in, all four shocks adjust so easily and it has brake force adjustment front and back with a switch on the dash. A sensational car. The noise is totally addictive form the supercharger cutting in.

Nurburgring, mixed track day or racing on the public highway?
Just asking....

I was out today and a few cars came past me- I wasn't racing, but if they're on Mondeo Owners club forum tonight claiming they burnt off some bikes today I wouldn't be surprised.

Please don't use capitals unless it's important- it's like shouting.

Having said that- I'LL HAVE A THRASH OF IT IF YOU'RE OFFERING.

Public roads, between yeovil and crewkerne, for a road test etc, then took it home after a quick set up.The car is sublime on a twisty road, the bikes were going some on the A30 but on the twisty roads it leaves everything behind. The braking is phenomenal, and it never breaks away on the butt end, they have to be driven to be believed. The V8 must be mental, this is 2.25, supercharged, 370bhp and 550kg.
