Hook, line and sinker;)

You see we all rise to casual assertions which are slightly insulting, I bet the Focus RS forum is a fun place to berolleyes

I wasn't going to reply but there has been some pretty special replies! Shucks you guys know how to make a bloke feel special....

Yes ignore the big bad naughty troll. Didn't realise we weren't allowed to express our opinions. That's how Communism started!

Tight T-shirt, shaven head. Nope just checked my t-shirt allows me to manoeuver freely and hair is still on my head, thank god. I love a bum, only on alternative Saturdays though, ex - Navy you see, that's what we used to do at sea to pass the time and search endlessly for the golden rivet!

I digress

Pretty much all cars handle the same if driven well! Really... are you for real is this a statement from the book of Suspension tuners weekly or just a made up one plucked out the sky just to add your 10 pence worth, brilliant though it is. The world would be a very boring place if so.

People who can't drive a car fast with low power but a good set up are not adept to driving! Didn't realise Sir Jackie Stewart is in the house. My focus RS had 212bhp that's 12 more than the BBR MX5, does that extra 12bhp mean I am not adept to driving, do my skills fade driving 212bhp but I suddenly regain them when I step in a car with 130bhp!

I only like cars with big power, again, I drive a Hyundai 4x4 not famed for its massive power output! 'Hang on passengers here comes the savage torque curve of the mighty 1.9ltr diesel!'

A few years a go I had a choice of many cars out of all the cars I looked at, I bought the car that handled the best, it also had the least power out of the 10 or so I chose to test drive! I bought it because it was bonkers, rare, handled well and well priced and it made me smile, still does when it works! :0)

Thanks for the character assignations, assumptions and illogical replies though, made me chuckle.

Right, I'm off to look through everyone's profiles to mastermind a pincer movement. NOT! 'You owned a fwd car in 1988 with 201bhp, your not worthy to be on this forum you power hungry, torque biased, whilst nonchalantly ignoring a good set up mentalist!'

Yup, you'd better take that hook out of your mouth. Aren't you doing exactly the same thing??????

Imagine what he thinks about the original 1.6 Mx5...

Taught me how to drive properly that did. Wonderful car.

Had to preserve your misquote for posterity rofl

Yep, the old Morris Marina handles exactly like an Integra Type R, if you shut your eyes you couldn't tell the difference.]

So what is a homoravopop?

I know, I was just pointing out that he misquoted you. You didn't say "all cars handle the same".

I'm still intrigued by "homoravopop" though.
