Hi all

Here is mine and my wife's Ford Focus:



We just had the back windows tinted.
Next mod is going to be a strut brace (next week)

My site focus page has loads more info:
www.greylizard.net/fordfocus.php

Also this is my old XR2, which is how I found this forum as my pic had been used here:

I smashed it up after getting a £2000 engine put in it, so it wasn't finished. At least I: a. survived and b. got it in Fast Ford Magazine and c. in Redline magazine and got a free set of alloys for the crash pics in Redline.

All the best

Justin

i remember seeing that picture of the XR2 all smashed up... very scary stuff.

If I recall, the turbo XR2 was one of the reasons why I converted my old XR2 to turbo technics (really bad conversion for the record).
