Mid Life Crisis

Post by MRV6 »

Three years ago had somewhat a bit of a mid life crisis and bought myself a Mk2 RS Focus. Really love everything about the car. When bought it had a ; As inlet plenum, Miltek cat back, mongoose down pipe, bigger injectors, Blue fin stage 3 map, Airtec intercooler and montune airbox.

In the interim, I added a group A air filter, a bespoke crossover pipe and a de cat.



Fast forward to now, she's had cold air feeds fitted, intercooler stenciled, front splitter. side skirt extensions, rear spats. H & R lowering springs and a set of JR wheels.

When bought.

My first ever car back in black and white days was a green mk1 Escort GXL. So I've come full circle.

It's running around 400 bhp, so puts a smile on your face. Great cars to drive but also very practical.

Sad thing from my personal point of view is I have now had my Mr2 for 16 years and the people I used to hang around with have either died or sold their cars. So the car doesn't get out much now. I do miss the social side of things.

I go to shows now in the Focus with my mates son and his friends.
