I've driven one of those to Scotland and back. I hate it. It ruined any sense of a 'driving experience' for me. It was a 5 speed, but I kept it in 4th, so as I could keep it to as near 70 as I possibly could.

i had a mk11 1600 sport escort but never got to drive it because my dad bought me a brand new RS 500 for passing on my 17th birthday ( bless him.....). mind you 20 years down the line and just finished paying for it LOL...
