actually it's a photoshop job, I threw in the overheating for the reason you guessed. What do people expect when a ford goes 130? They expect it to overheat or break down

BTW the top speed of the focus is, I think 110. BTW, I love the MCS, and I hate the Focus auto POS. I was just joking

When me and my dad went to test drive an s last week it had 133 miles on it. We red lined it in every gear for the 30 minutes we drove it and went as fast as 100 up the steepest bridge in the jacksonville area, before we even noticed, then we decided it would be best to slow down. I'll stop now before I go on and on about this great car. Then we get back and he said we could buy it, I was thinking maybe for 18k since it was the test drive car, that wasnt even broken in yet.

L8 Apex,

I'm glad you clarified your position on the Ford Focus. If you have not bought a Mini yet, do so now!
