I’ve lost that much interest in modern supercars I couldn’t even tell you what this is.

The XR2i was absolutely MINT, they all were tbh but the fiesta had 42k on the clock and one previous owner. Belonged to a university lecturer at the Royal College of Arts, when he got too old to drive it he knocked a wall out of his house and kept it in his living room, properly bizarre but its condition really made me believe the story.

Jesus that boy looks a bit young to own all them
 
Yes it is mate! I think they are called AC cars and are either a Ford dealership or specialist.

Just up the road from there is a BMW place with a few really cool old BMWs inside, looked like a 2002 turbo - going to try and stop there next time.
Yes I know the place, think it’s in Dane Hill. Random spots for some quite rare cars.

Some questionable mods, but I always quite liked those. Mad that Vauxhall made a VXR version of pretty much everything, then threw it all away and now make nothing of interest at all.

Same for Ford, Renault and others. Spend years and millions building a well known brand, then toss the lot in the bin

Meanwhile stand around scratching your head while the Koreans steal your clothes.

In the case of Ford, it's because no one wants small cars anymore. That's why the Corsa topped the UK sales charts, obviously.

Don't understand what they're doing really. It made sense when they were trying to globalise everything, but they seem to be going backwards. The likes of BMW are trying to fill every tiny niche to give themselves economies of scale, while Ford are producing less and less models and charging more and more.

And yet Ford are still making the Galaxy and Ecosport. Who the f**k wants one of those these days?

Af for Renault, I spotted a new megane lekky thing outside a dealers today and its not a bad looking thing annoyingly. Hopefully the Alpine 5 will be worth having and prove to us that the sudden death of Renaultsport wasn't a monumental c**k up.
