Just had some guy in a focus St go past that sounds like its misfiring like an old mini with water in the distributor. Pointed out to him it was clearly not well as i went past him, his reply "Nah mate i make it do that" what you make it misfire hesitate then go of like a firecracker, is this what the yoof of today consider cool?? Both my M1 Focus RS and both my classic minis make lovely pops and burbles, but none of them sound like they area bout to go terminally pop.

No, it sounded like it was misfiring badly.

"The car is a Euro 6 full stock with Record Monza Exhaust and BMC Air filter."

Is he using 'stock' in the American sense to mean standard? Which would obviously be bks considering the second half of that sentence.
