Yes, the FF - a stretched Interceptor (two side grills vs one)

May 01, 2024,16:33 PM
 

I drove one in the late 80's from UK to southern Spain - it was a FF MkII renovated and respecked to MkIV by the factory with a 5.9 injection Chrysler block. It barely got into double digit MPG and fuel vapourisation in hot Madrid was a pain, but on the open road was a dream mile eater. AWD permanently on and also ABS based on the Maxaret system. This is the actual car (it is white, albeit the picture veers towards silver).

Dip in here now and again - only 1 new watch back in 2019 & sold a few watches since. On a retirement glide path as approach the big six oh my god where did the last 20 years go ;-)

So glad to hear…

Been ups and downs here, with many moves since we last met. And it looks like another one might come within the year, so let’s see 🤷🏻‍♂️ But everyone’s healthy, age wise I am following behind you and the rest are first world problems I guess 😉👍🏻 ...

with seemingly some intake upgrades that's hopefully sorted the vapourisation issues at high temps & low speed traffic
