    It's my friend's fault really, he's just bought a bright yellow Ford Mustang, and he's already complaining about the size, being LHD and attention it gets. I just want to show him how you can have the power & be on the correct side without the unwanted attention

    Thumbs up

    Good thinking batman. That was my view entirely. And it had 4 doors, a big boot and better suspension than the mustang. Good hunting for your new 260.

    Heya James!

    Ah see the thing is, people see the Mustang and go "ooo nice" they see a 260 or for some of us hear it, and go "What the?...whats that?! oooo nice"

    Just get one, you'll love every minute of it

    To be honest Stu, I'd go out and buy one tomorrow, but I do need to sort some things out first, and leaving it closer to insurance renewal time makes sense in the grand scheme
