You know I wasn't being serious right? :P

No GPS in my pics though. Geotag is off on the phone and EXIF gets cleaned anyway during the cropping!

OK OK

Here's the dashcam shot before I cleaned it up in photoshop

Also I was on NASCAR racetrack at the time which is the real reason it's crooked. Top secret WA one though so that's why you haven't heard of it.

You're a brave man taking spotto pics Steve with double demerits in play :busted1:

Yeah I was conscious of that. Helps to be aware of the surroundings at all times, they only ping me when it's a well hidden in the bush rear facing camera or it's night time and they are coming the other way with dash mounted speed detection units on Toodyay Rd...but I pulled over and waited for them at the bottom of the hill and got it dropped to the 1-9kmh over zone instead of 14 as detected...phew.

XR5 Turbo does not have an EcoBoost like the current ST Focus.

The current ST is a lot better than the old ST (XR5 Turbo) with the 2.5L 5cly.

Yes im aware of that

It's pretty similar power wise though

The 5cyl sounded good. Ecoboost probably sounds teh ghey

Yea the 5cly did sound very good. The EcoBoost ST sounds nice too, but it amplifies the induction sound in the cabin.

Power wise the ST feels a lot better on the road. Awesome little car that is cheap when you compare it to the competitors like the Golf GTI, Megan RS etc.

Even better IMO is the little Fiesta ST :spoton:

Yeah that's also something I've noticed and would look at if I was buying. Fiesta badge could change to Fista pretty easily too LOLOLOLOL
