Number Juan has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
i would own...and this may sound strange...but i would REALLY LOVE to own my ex-girlfriend's Dad's Mondeo. it's an S-Reg Mondeo Ghia, really sexy, masculline looking car with the meshed air filters, sporty skirts and small rear wing. its got a 2.6l Petrol V6 pumping out approximately 170bhp...he's a police officer, and has given me a lift home from a train station in the middle of nowhere (damn Southern trains!), we drove along a rather deserted A-Road doing 140mph quite easily. the acceleration of the thing is pretty amazing for such a big car, but once it gets past 4,000rpm, it sounds beastly!!!

if i did own it though, i would like to get a race-filter, maybe fit a few righteous parts that would make it fly

the Porsche 917 is fantastic though...apparently it was the only car that Mr. Fittipaldi was actually scared of driving...what a car!!!
