Engine was delivered on Monday, surprise to everyone. Too early for my plans of recovery from the cash I just forked over for the used car I bought. It never stops. Need to call Green Engineering for a TC now.

Well as much as I hate to say it, I think I might sell the KJ after I get it back. I will have to look at taking the money and using to pay off someof this debt this whole thing has caused me and then look at buying a used MB ML/GL CDI. I hope I get it back and it says " Hey I missed you and lets go have some fun again" and the spark is back into being a happy CRD owner again.

No offense but this post gets weirder by the day and borders on ridiculous.

potholes: I hit them everyday no issues. The wheels cost about $800 EACH

I pull into the driveway everyday. No issues

Pebbles: no issues again.

This is a 70 mile a dad Daily Driver, I have driven it is 4" of snow with no issues.

The car was super clean, $3000 OEM Recaro's in it and was looking for a new home that would take care of it. Plus the car is pretty famous in the import world. It does everything I need it to do except get muddy, and it has done that a couple of times aready as well.

Really you all think this car is low? hell you should see the one in Germany, it makes this one look like a 4x4.

And I know who is going to build the down pipe for the CRD if I keep it.

Yes it has 6 different magazine spots to it's credit. Plus you post shows me that you have no idea what the car is or how rare it is. People liike you make me laugh when they say they are automobile fans, when actually they do not know anything about what they are talking about. The last magazine was one in Canada a few weeks ago. Try and googleing silver Focus and see how many times the car shows up on magazine sites.

Oh wait now I know who posted so it is par for course coming from you.:lol:

I just googled "silver focus" and after 13 pages of nothing about your focus I find it very hard to believe.It's just a focus,as $13,000 brand new entry level tin box on wheels.

My brother's Ford pickup truck was used in a Spielberg movie once. They shot out the back window. He did let them use stunt guys though. :cry:
