yeah there was a 7.2 aswell, the FF was just a 4wd version of the interceptor, adding more problems to the car.

Nearly bought one of those a few years go.  Had a private plate on it.  Had a chat with a mate about the value of the plate on friday.  On onday found out a mate of his had sloped off and bought the car fom under my nose.

Pity I had slip where the car was stored. :-/

5 cars (2 Omega, 2 Peugeot and a Mitsi Delica) 2 motorbikes (FJ12 and VFR750), caravan in storage as well, and 2 pushbikes to try to recoup the carbon footprint....

Need to sell the Delica though, now surplus to requirements and taking up space in the bankbook, despite 12 months MOT and a few months rent....

....
jensen was the first to utilise the abs system, not invent it.  ....

As mentioned on here yonks back, it was invented for planes (WWII?) as plane's wing's got slimmer, their wheels had to get slimmer to fit in. When/if they locked up on landing there was a danger of a blow out ..... hence requirement for ABS!  :y

Finally sold the Ducati this morning.A bloke from Lincoln came and bought it ,put it in the back of his van with a 999s which he had just collected from st.leonards on sea. I suggested doing a swap for the 999s but mrs Bitz went spacko  ;D
The Mondeo diesel is going on Saturday as well,so there will just be the Mig and the cbr on the drive.........for the moment. :)

 :o Oh dear, how could you bear to do it! :'(
I had to bear walking past it every day since Sep. 07 without being able to take it for a blast,it was delivered with 3 miles on the clock,and it left with 3 miles on the clock. so in the circumstances I was glad to see the back of it.  ;)
one of the best wheely machines you could get apparently,but I never got to find out. :'( ;D
