Fair enough mate - i wouldn’t say its an inherent thing of 1*2’s to be fair? Not something i’ve seen as an issue anyway!

How so?

Cross threaded or rounded, tights tight IIRC

People did see the price, aye? Its one thousand f**king pounds! Jesus wept.

Behave yourself ffs. Lets not start that on what has to be one of the few decent forums left. Andy comes across a nice guy but that hardly warrants a whip round, does it?

I must need my eyes tested as well, that looked like scrunched up black electrical tape over the valve caps.

No ones buying them cash at 40k though, are they? Like the Golf R the market is saturated with them as 95% will have been leased/pcp et al?

Is it possible that Americans are the most irritating c***s on the planet? I couldn’t watch that!

No mate its just the way its photographed - the other sided the same!

They’re growing on me, Ian :o Would you believe i nearly put Speedline Turinis on it last week lol

Flol:tearsofjoy:

Honda owners would try and fit that to an EG hatch as well. The c***s.

Sore one that mate, sorry to hear.

White 197 Cup with the reg W3 CUP or something similar. Also what looks like a well sorted racing blue 182 with F1’s/bucket seats etc

Great advert mate, thats reasonably priced too i reckon!

You will have once you peel that wrap off. Sorry but that looks full bradford with that wrap.

Fvcking awesome. I’d love one thats as quick as a bike to smoke these utter arse pirates in the highlands during the summer. Lottery win i’ll 100% buy that Ariel Atom V8 they’re selling for 225k first lol.

You’re right, the good thing about the Focus is everyone gets to experience the sense of occasion. By the time it has its 7th engine every apprentice mechanic will be able to tell their grand children how good they are.

If i’d commited myself to owning a flagship premium car that needed an engine change 8k in then i’d be more inclined to make sure i thrashed the next one. These engines are allegedly bench tested? One way to find out. Fails again? You’ll love Golf R ownership. Stage 1 R’s with DSG make 60 in...

Exactly. Boot its balls from the first turn of the key IIRC.

My god. In.

Sell it and buy an RS3.

Flol I fvcking hate cars!

If you decide to sell give me a shout mate.

I really do have a soft spot for these! A lad with a green one chased me for a while in the Golf, they go well!

This isn’t comparible oor Dave ;) Don’t dare ruin 5 cylinder Audi day for me!

Not a documented common problem though, is it?

I agree with you completley on the fact not all issues will be caught and almost all manufacturers will have a recall at some stage of the proceedings but for the flagship model to be needing an engine is entirely unacceptable. If i’m spending 35k on a car, i expect recalls to be for software...

The gloves...😂 Glad they’re sorting it! As said i think it’ll be a crate engine with everything attatched!
