Did any of the UK members catch last night's Top Gear on BBC? Ian Wright in the reasonably priced car was outstanding! Managed to get it up on 2 wheels at one point! My wife has just taken delivery of her new Ford Focus. Saw one of these in the showroom, but she couldn't be convinced. Very nice with 2.5l Turbo unit. 225PS & 150mph. 0-60 6.5 secs. Not bad for a standard Ford family car... Take a look at the rather nice micro site; http://www.ford.co.uk/ns7/foc_c307/foc_c307_experience/foc_st_microsite/-/-/-/-#

very nice  If she couldn't be convinced then I'm sure it because she knows you should be waiting for the Focus RS instead  Top Gear was good, Ian Wright was great on the track! Funny guy as well, loved his story about crashing the Ferrari! lol

not sure, though I imagine it will be repeated on BBC3 or one of the other digital channels at some point through the week.

Ages since I've been here to visit... nice to come back and see all that's been happening. Just came across this, and thought of at least one person who would almost certainly appreciate it. http://www.thetorquereport.com/gtrscan.jpghttp://www.thetorquereport.com/gtrscan3-thumb.jpg

I am fairly regular on the Skyline forums (I own one  and really want the GTR when it comes out... though affording it might be a problem... lol), so pretty much everything on the internet about the new GTR will be linked/referenced on the forums, that particular image came up a while ago - if I recall, the image was created by a Jap motor magazine to go with their news about there being 3 versions of the upcoming GTR (standard, V-Spec and Evolution models), it was their idea on how the Evolution model could be different from the other two.

Isn't that meant to be a N.E.D car?

Skyline, a ned car? I'd be pretty sure that's not the case, don't think I've ever seen a ned in a Skyline! You might be thinking of the Impreza, which gained the reputation as the 'getaway car of choice'.
