Just 'Googled' XV1 & it came up with (amongst a lot of other stuff) a lot of pictures of the latest Pope. XV1 is roman numerals for 16 - 16th Pope ?

going to work in rush hour at the sandyknowes roundabout near belfast( NI people will know it too well) every car in N.Ireland converges on it to get to belfast, seriously bad place, you think i'm that mad to drive my mini there!!

.
Googled it myself, XV1 is the Ford Fusion XV1 which is going to america to try and set the land speed record for an electric motor, does this mini driver have some secret they're not telling us under that bonnet??
