FIESTA TURBO - Yes, it's a thrash-tastic turbo'd Fiesta. It's had more tweaks than a porn star's nipples and it gives a better blow job too. Oh, hang on a minute, is that right Read the feature and marvel at the, er, marvellous tuning goodies aboard this FoMoCo speed machine
ZEEMAX BMW - As if we didn't have enough fat-tastic frolicking with the 306 we're at it again. Another monster creation from the Zeemax stable and you don't get much bigger than a BMW 5-series with the fattest bodykit around

SIERRA COSSIE - Hooray for the three-door Cossie. Surely this has to be one of the greatest cars ever created. Well, it comes in closely behind the Nova (and the 205 677 - JS), but that goes without saying. Rear-wheel drive, arse-out action in a putrid yellow, pavement pizza on wheels
Mk2 GOLF VR6 - So it's a Golf VR61 hear you say. So what Fact is, it's a Mk2 and it's not to be messed with. There's enough ICE in this mutha to chill the contents of an Ibiza rave. If you thought your Golf was low, you need to drool over this one
