New high-level brakelight.

 

 

In hindsight I probably didn't need to use as FIA-spec rainlight, as it's a bit retina-searing.

 

Still, no one will miss it!

 

So bright that all the detachable bodywork jumped off the car to get away!

 

I look forward to the stories of the angry drivers behind you venting their spleens! 🤬🤣

[Exitus]

They’ll have to catch me to vent, and that’s unlikely…

You have to fill up with petrol at some point…

Surprisingly regularly given a. The fuel economy, and b. The accuracy of the fuel gauge!

 

(which oscillates from about 40% to 120% when the indicators are on…)

Mine is thirsty too. Needs a dyno. What engine do you have that's drinking it?

I much prefer house electrics, even when you take into account the slight risk of death.

 

I have a policy of never messing with anything you can't see, hear or smell but can kill you 😂

It's a Sport 250 - so a 2.0 litre Ecoboost. Not sure what the efficiency actually is, but it's not high! Supposedly the Focus ST gets about 30 - I'd be amazed if it was that high.

Took the opportunity to fit a honeycomb grille yesterday while doing a coolant flush - quite like the cleaner look.

[Matt_S]

@SteveB21 Have you got a link to the grill material you bought?

[SteveB21]

@Matt_S I've checked and the eBay link no longer works and the order details aren't very detailed - I'll let you know the mesh dimensions.

[SteveB21]

@Matt_S the mesh holes are 12mm x 32mm and 6mm thick. I do have enough left from the sheet for another grille so will DM you.

Have to say,that does look very nice. May change mine at some point now I've seen this.

But is it available in Carbon Fibre?..

Pitched a tent.

 

Thirsty work in this weather.

 

@Murraymint can't believe I've not been over before this. Roads look great for a Westy.
