    Top Gear - Shelby GT500 review (vid)

    How reliable would a 4.6 T-Bird be?

    Thinking of getting 95-97 4.6 T-Bird as a DD, I currently do 110 miles a day so reliability and durability are important. What are the 4.6 T-Birds like? How many miles can you expect to put on the motor before a rebuild? Also how does the MPG and reliabilty of the 4.6 compare to the...

    Info/opinions on Thunderbird

    I know it's not SVT, but it's still Ford. Looking for any info (or decent forums) for Thunderbirds. Specifically the mid 80's models up until the 97 model. NOT the current one. What are they like as a DD and basis of a performance car? I mean the look pretty good, more tame than a...

    Lotus Elise

    On my way home last night a nice silver MK1 Elise pulled out infront of me, sadly they where driving like a total twat, far too much traffic on a single lane road. Still their aftermarket exhaust sounded pretty decent. Anyhow followed them for 5 miles or so until the road turns into dual...

    What's a good pulley combo?

    What would be the best pulley combo for a Terminator with catback, mid pipe, CAI and a tune (after the pulley swap). Stock unported Eaton. Would be used on the street most of the time and would have to run on 91 octane. Cheers.

    z/28 vs 911 Carrera 'S' (993)

    Went from 70mph to 120-130mph. They had the jump, was level for a few seconds and I slowly started pulling on them. 3+ lengths. :D Did this 3 times or so, I was two up in the car and they where on their own.

    Got my arse handed to me by a Ferrari F430

    On the way to work this morning a new F430 in silver came up behind me and after toying for a while went flying past (sounded awesome, and even the quirky looks of the F430 are growing on me). Not sure if it was an F1 paddle box or not, but it didn't sound like it was when it shifted. Only...
