Went for a ride in a mate's SMART FourFour and I've got to say I was impressed. It's got a good power-to-weight ratio and ESP/Traction Control and it loved to rev to 7,000.

Dark Blue LR Focus at KFC Richmond... It's there quite often. Lowered, chrome rims, different tail lights, looks nice (when it's clean).

I see it in Richmond as well when i drive through ... I should keep a look out more often for other members.
If you see a white AU ute with big driving lights on the front and courier signage on the side ... and S3 XR8 rims as well ... dark tint ... with green numberplates .... that be me.

Hey Mechan1k, I frequent the Richmond KFC for lunch every now and then as I work at the uni up there. Usually I'm in a black Cougar if you ever see it around...
****er is too kind a word to describe that POS Rick Kelly... Dan

I'll keep an eye out for a Cougar ... not many out on the roads ... so shouldn't be too hard to spot

I drew up alongside a bunch of young guys in a rice burner (nothing unusual about that) but I had a chuckle to myself after reading what was on the fuel filler lid "drinking water only". Should maybe have read "rice wine only"?? seeing as though it was a rice burner.

Spotted black Fiesta yesterday morning on Old Windsor Road turning into Oakes Road. I can't be 100% sure but I think the plates were N EA 57S, who is on these forums?

Deep blue 90's model Escort RS Cosworth ... at my mechanics ... damn it goes like the preverbial off a shovel. Will post up a pic when i get it off my phone.
When I first saw one in a magazine I wanted one ... shame they are rare out here. This one I am about to post is a personal import from the UK ... has had a little bit of work done to it ... still looks stock though.

Oh ... that's not a P-plate on it ... it's the old UK numberplate underneath the black and yellow's
Sorry for the crap image ... my phone's not the best for taking photos.

That looks like a Escort Cosworth. A member of Classic Ford Club has a Red example that's absolutely awesome and that has been in the past out with me on a combined Cruise.

Hey Marc,
Comparing it to Darren's time of 1.15.5 he set in Qualifying back in February this year that's a pretty impressive time.
