Before I go posting photos and possibly ruining the thread I want to know if the Ford RS200 and Ford Focus RS WRC are classed as UK cars?

I know Ford is American but to me there are four Fords. America ie Ford GT, UK ie Ford Focus, Australia ie Ford V8 Supercar and Japan ie Ford Telstar which is also a Mazda 626. I am not sure off the top of my head if there were any 'Japanese' Fords in GT5.


Go for it.

Ford GT/Falcon/F150 etc are ones I wouldnt class as bristish
 
I entered a four lap, 400pp race driving a lightly tuned Spitfire at Spa-Francorchamps last week. After the first straight it was clear the Spitfire was no match for the modern 400pp Japanese cars :indiff: in all out speed. But the battle for 6th place ended up being a great battle between two '70s British sports cars. We swapped places about a dozen times during the race. I finished just a 1/5 second ahead of that Europa! :scared:

There was one exception... and a whole lot of horn coming from that Infinity as we eventually passed them on lap four! 👍

Nice to see some of the British greats getting some love. Over the years we've had some truly excellent luxury and sports models, but so few cars that were both cheap and half-decent. We really have no-one but ourselves to blame for the fall of our car industry, sadly.
