Chris, to post photos on here get the direct photo link from photobucket and place it between [pic] & [/pic], or [img] & [/img]. Either will work.

Shouldn't be parked on the street if it is.

They're going off to dealers now anyway. About the last thing I went to before I left Ford was the UK launch.

Blimey, what on earth did you say to them at the launch that meant you had to leave?

Why's that then?

Seeing as the car was unveiled a while before this photo was taken, why shouldn't it be parked on the road?

Insurance I guess. Most of the development cars in the UK will either be too heavily disguised to interest spy photographers or a hybrid (i.e using an existing body shell to test a new powertrain) so it's not for the sake of secrecy.

For whatever reason it's just their policy not to have development cars parked out on the public road. Driveways etc. are fine (given the appropriate camouflage), but not the road. Go figure.
