Oh my god! You don't know! Well in that case I'm not telling!

I've really put a 1.4 diesel engine in it so i can feel the economy, with 'racing' spark-plugs....er.

Now I know you are telling fibs - it was only the M528 SE Turbo Evo 11 diesel that accepts the racing plugs. all others take the standard Bosch P10nker plugs!

Well i know its really fast! I raced a M3 last week. He knew i was boss so he pulled over. He was crying and shaking his head.

 

Prehaps he was laughing..b£$%ocks! Well i know that my Bright pink paint job and white weller wheels impressed him, because he brings loads of his mates round my house to cry at it.

Fair enough! You're on!

I am going to spend tomorrow at a scrap yard looking for a Mk III fiesta & I'll spend all day sunday doing it up.

I'll put a Massey Ferguson 160L V64  double-tri turboed engine with a petrol (& maybe nitro) conversion into her. I also have a stainless steel kitchen sink at home which I'll hammer into an exhaust because nobody stocks exhausts that are as big or loud as I need. My engine won't even need spark plugs for it (never mind the exhaust) because I'll be going so fast that the wind will keep blowing all the sparks out. This should also keep weight down.

I have an old garage door that I will rivet to the boot door. I also want to get a parachute for braking purposes cos I'll be going so fast. I'm also planning on having low profile tyred lorry wheels on each corner - should fill the wheel arches nicely. Im also going to tie a few bales of hay covered in papier mache around the wheel arches so it looks really wide. I will also get those front spoiler thingys that clip onto the front valance so it looks like a F1 car.

The boot will be house an electricity generator used to will power my 160dB mega Boom Bastic sub woofers with built in sonic thrust blaster ear bleeders. This will be connected to a 150,000watt amplifier which feeds of the Ford Audio radio (with tape recorder).

I already have Max Power stickers for it (these will also be used to hold the car together). Oh yeah I also have the 16V badge for the back so it'll look brill.

... and a furry dice.

I wonder will it help me score?
