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! 🤬🤣 2 Quote
Exitus Posted September 5 Posted September 5 They’ll have to catch me to vent, and that’s unlikely… 1 Quote

Exitus Posted September 5 Posted September 5 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…) 3 Quote

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. 2 Quote
SteveB21 Posted September 6 Posted September 6 Took the opportunity to fit a honeycomb grille yesterday while doing a coolant flush - quite like the cleaner look. 7 Quote
Matt_S Posted September 6 Posted September 6 @SteveB21 Have you got a link to the grill material you bought? 1 Quote
SteveB21 Posted September 6 Posted September 6 @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. 1 Quote
SteveB21 Posted September 6 Posted September 6 @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. 2 Quote

Craigieboy Posted September 7 Posted September 7 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. 1 Quote
