Sounds like someone did their home work first, good boy. Was looking at one not long ago for the wife good size for the family and nice to drive, but I can see the wife walking every where after 3 months.

Enjoy the rocket and love the colour. :spit: Should see you around as I'm I A.P.

Well I flew in from Thailand today and went and picked up my new baby. The wife and kids suprised me by catching a train up to the airport so we could all go pick up the Focus.

On the way home I found it to be a great car to drive and the addition of the sunroof has really put it in another league. The 6 stacker MP3 player is great too as I bought back heaps of MP3 discs from Thailand.

The Ford dealer could have detailed it a bit better though, so tomorrows job is a nice clean and run up some more K's before I decide to sit down and start working again.

More pics to come soon.

Top stuff mate. Love the colour!

Do yourself a favor and do a cheap backyard pod filter job, just for one day, and you'll be grinning from ear to ear at the induction noise!

Cheers!

Mate, very nice bit of kit!

Love the interior, and those seats look great! They remind me very much of the seats in the Audi S4 circa01-03.

My wifes just seen the piccies - and now she wants one! (I'd better get back to work!)

Enjoy!

Hehe. A CAI is my first upgrade I want to do. Not paying $400 to $1000 though. I will make one and give it a run on the dyno to see if I know as much about airflow as I think I do :)

After that I am going to look for a Dreamscience tuning box. Stupid me didn't get up early enough the other morning and missed one on Ebay UK for $350 cheaper than a new one.

Paid $24 today for a mod that everyone running $600 plus boots on their car should do. A simple change from air in the tyres to nitrogen. Cooler running temps and more consistent pressure.

Here are some more pics of the car now I have it home and the sunroof is fitted.

And a teaser pic or 2.
