Hi Joe, good choice. I've run a lightning as a daily driver for 7 years now. On my third and my business partner / brother in law runs one as well. Both black, both standard apart from a brembo GT brake kit on the front. 380 mm discs with 8 pot calipers. Nightmare to fit as they don't tell that they won't quite fit inside the 18" wheels as they narrow in towards the five spokes. The mechanic mate had to gradually shave the calipers to make them fit. Enjoy as it is a fantastic truck and in truth far better than most performance cars.
Sorry to hijack the thread, but does anyone know of a red Lightning in Newbury, Berkshire? One very often drives by my house and seems to turn into a side road just down the road, but I've not worked out if the guys lives here or is just visiting. I'm only assuming now, but whoever lives near me has a number of cool cars visiting their house, the red Lightning, but also a couple of cars owned by the guy from Valley Gas Speed Shop (the shop F250 (I think - it's the 4-door crew cab that looks like the Harley version) in black, and also a '65-ish restomod Ford Falcon).
The Lightning had a plate that read something like "DAVE C"......so my 5 year old daughter shouts "Dave in the big red truck" every time is rumbles by our house
Gotta say, it really does sound flippin' lovely

Saw a white Mk2 Cortina with a blower out of the hood on Friday, Bone Lane area about 08:00hrs, I was coming out of the concrete plant - nice blower whine.
Good day to all. Picking up a 2003 Lightning next week, as the new toy.
I live in South Scotland, wondered if there are any owners in this/Glasgow/Edinburgh/Newcastle area? Where do you go for servicing, parts, etc. Any meets? Any gossip? Anything appreciated....
For info, insured through Flux, 5000 miles a year max, for £420 comprehensive.
