Very nice.

Why did you bother editing your number plate in the second photo though? I think your username and the first photo give it away

Just wondered how you felt it differed from your last car.

Bit of free advice mate, take it easy for a bit. Got a Type R V5 myself and they demand a big dose of respect. You'll know what I mean when it happens.

Thanks for the advice, accepted and noted It doesn't feel too much different to my last car in some ways. It's noticablely lighter and lower geared, able to take off in 2nd gear without frying the clutch

I know i have to be more accurate on the Brakes, Non ABS. I did give hard Braking a bit of a try today and "lit" the tyre up a couple of times

I did expect the Quick rack to be quicker certainly not as quick as the one in a 22B IIRC

Is that the one my missus was twiddling saying "I can't get the bloody window down " LOL

I'm keeping it Fully open for now but if it get to lively will take it up a notch or two. I will take heed of some good advice and us slower in faster out technique or just go slower .

What she actually said was "Your no longer going to trash my bathroom and kitchen aound the Track"

I'd two deals on a 05 STiPPP Demo and a MY04 Type C, but fecked up by the Crash she said "No way" "No more Scoobs" " No more Trackdays" and " Your going to be Castrated"

Finally begged and pleaded saying I'll get a cheap Scoob After the Ford KA and the Fiesta Diesel didn't take much convincing and she even forgot about the Kitchen. . Hence the type R
