Brake pads are cheaper than gear box's I think

The problem with 197/200 just too fragile @litchy had both plus the running costs no my 200T is cheaper plus power below 5500rpm buddy

Nah not fragile mate. If you think the number of years between the first 197 and the 200T, you'd expect improvements. I think the 200t is a good car but the 197/200 were game changers and the 200t are also but for the wrong reasons. The 200t for me was a huge disappointed. Even with a keen eye, it's hard to tell the difference between the standard cars. Also, the price is absolutely crazy when you look into the technology gone into the car. Even the engines just been stolen from Nissan.

The Fiesta wins hands down IMO. Looks better, drives better, proper gearbox, great seats and mods approved by Ford.

I guess. Each to their own mate. If a cat d one comes up, I'll be looking to put a 250 engine in one with a manual gearbox. Well that's the plan anyway.....
