Looks clean, Dave! FTOs can be rather nice cars. I enjoyed a really good run with a very fast one a couple of weeks ago (along with some Ferraris, Porsches, BMWs, etc … and even a Noble!)

I quite like the FTOs and that looks like a rather tidy one. What are they like to drive?

Thats not bad. (£1300) for a clean car. Probably won't require £1500 spending on it in the first year or a new clutch/water pump. Shame they didn't make it rear wheel drive. It is mad what you can get for around 1K these days. No wonder my '44 isn't worth anything. :blackeye:

Its actually a very clean car, worst case scenario I run it for a year and then bin it.
