Very tasty, I might even be turned towards Ford for this one.

Love the car not sure about the decals though. 
Mate at work took me out in his 365bhp MK1 the other night, that was a lot of fun.

Very nice for a hippo. You could have had a proper car instead of the Vauxhall TN?

I have come to my senses. With all the problems the Focus has had I'm going to change for the next three years.
And after a remap 200 odd bhp and 320 odd lb/ft of torque will do me.
Fancy a 3rd gear blast?  | |

A 3rd gear blast?? I don't think many would top my 3rd gear accelaration, if I don't mind saying to my self 
My baby is gear'd low anyhows, and third gear is by far my favorate gear 
4th is terrible for driving around town. Its two high for 30mph and too low for 60mph. | |

| Re: I've fell in love.
Third gear is quite good in the standard Astra so Remapped should be a little better.
Say 30-60 seeing as it would be on a public road?
You in BBJ? | |

Suck it and see the pair of you I will eat alive on a third gear blast. Two 1400 kg cars one a diesel with high peak torque and that's it and another with 4wd transmission losses don't concern me. Muhahahaha. Hah. | |
