Default Trip to Bathurst

Yesterday took my Fiesta up to bathurst to give it a good run, and explore Mount Panorama.

was great fun, the car did brilliantly, handled great, engine... well struggled a bit up the steep hills, but still managed to get me around the corners with tyres squeeling

took bells line of road to get there and back, and once again car handled it great, ride was good, it was relatively quiet, and didnt miss a beat. Only problem was lack of cruise control and after 7 hours in the car, it was quite uncomfortable.

all i have to do now is show you guys the pictures, and go remove all the disgusting bugs which took their lives on the front of the car.... YUCK!

Looks like you had a blast buddy. If there is one thong I miss about my old WP it's the steering feel and handeling. Ok so it could be lumpy and was heavy around town, but it was an extension of my hands feeling every inch of the road. Car looks great too, I especially like the Euro plates!
