Wow that is proper stunning, love it.

542bhp isn't enough for some people? Wow.

Looks great from the outside, and you know the inside is going to be gorgeous as well. Id take it over a 911 turbo a million times over.

Surprising, the brake discs still don't look to be drilled, which all cars seem to be with this much power, the XK75 was the same wasn't it, just had huge discs.

It looks like someone has let Mansory loose on an XK. Shame too, if they lost the chav styling would be a great car i'm sure.

Each to their own, Fiesta 30th Anniversary is way more exclusive than this will be too.

The price looks a bit steep when compared to both, the 85k 75 special edition, and the standard black pack edition, which can be bought for 74k confused

My £100k would go on a 1-2 year old Aston DBS with Manual and V12 NA !!!!!

Better looking and better sounding Britishnes.

Only 400 Fiesta Anniversary editions made... as this is not a special edition then I can guarantee more than that will be made.

That wasn't the point I was making, merely that I think the Jag looks chavvy.

I don't know, that Jag unit, even in milder tune, is one of the nicest sounding engines in years. One burbled and barked in the most guttural of fashions past me on the bike this morning and it put a grin on my face. Was followed by a 911 that sounded like a humming fridge in comparison. Aston V12 does sound nice as well though.

Look are subjective. I think a yellow Fiesta is as chavy as it gets, and a Aston Martin is a footballers wife's car, but then thats just me.

Had a go in the 75 and my God, what a car.

This, to me, is one step too far in the styling department having had time to properly look at it.

I see, so the fact that there are only 400 of them makes them less chavvy. Nice one.
