Picked up the latest issue last night and was surprised to see a feature article on a fast SVO. When these cars came out in 86' I was 15 years old and wanted one soooo badly. They were Fords answer to the burgeoning ricer scene at the time and seemed so high tech. Back then we thought that everything would be less than 2 litres and turbocharged by now. Hell, at one point Ford was going to let Mazda build the Mustang. Talk about a scare!! So many folks raised hell that they scrapped the plans.

Never got my hands onan SVObut enjoyed the article on a really fast one in MM! Brought back many memories.
