Good question!
I have been working abroad so long that I have not own anykind of road legal car in ten years. So BMW was.... shock. But in good way!
Ford gave me what they have, so anyway it was time to change. Still I like that RS2000 on gravel a lot. I have build that my self and even I make mistake (I never do though) it's cheap to fix. Did I mentioned that it's no more road legal!

Are you in Ireland or Finland? Wondering where the Irish link came from in your location information.

If You look closely You can see that I'm going to DRIVE to Hungary. I will have quality time with my car in Germany... Maybe try to get my odometer to the far south-east.
