They might have done a 7.5 and 145mph top speed when they came out of the factory but I bet there ain't many that'll do it now! You are a right Ford lover aren't you? Anyway, you can still get summat good for half that - a Rover 620 Ti for about £500, thats a 2.0 turbo with 220bhp that'll do 145mph Try and beat that for £250!
