Alex, the Mustang looks like its crashed into Halfords in Detroit and reversed out with half the window display stuck to it but the other is sort of ok, but a bit um.......I suppose the 2nd phrase I am looking for is 'pimp' biggrin

This could be a laugh!

Followed it around castle combe and it was pretty quick. (not quite the outrageous American car though is it?! Time for a Corvette perhaps? wink)

V8 gives you 300 bhp, and low 20s mpg, I think the V12s are slightly more fragile but they are a beautiful car, and this one is in the right colour too.

sillySir - you are mad as a bag of frogs to consider such things!!!!jester

'65 Shelby Mustang I could understand (nostalgia value)driving but 'is you planning on breaking into the 'East coast' entertainment market or sumfink'?

What is even madder is to consider replacing a Tuscan with such crazyness!!

Early American cars drive like a bag of Sh*te, and I have had many. You will be dissappointed once the novelty wears off
