If the vehicle does not sell on eBay, it will either be relisted at a later time or sent to a public auction. The vehicle, again, has 111,520 miles. There is no major damage or rust in the body of the vehicle-just normal wear-n-tear scratches, dings, and dents. The vehicle has all the following WORKING options: power windows, locks, mirrors, trunk release, driver's seat lumbar/recline, cut-off switch (allows driver to push cut-off switch and take key out of ignition to keep vehicle running. The key would need to be inserted into ignition to place vehicle in drive to prevent theft). The vehicle has manual tilt steering wheel, power adjustable gas pedal, and cruise control (we did not use the cruise control so unknown if working-probably working). The vehicle has driver-side and passenger-side air bags, rear defrost, dome light, interior lights and spotlight all in working order. The vehicle has an AM/FM stereo and air conditioning in good working order. All of the vehicle's exterior lights, lamps, signals are in working order. The vehicle's tires are in good condition. Again, the vehicle shows normal signs of wear-n-tear about the body-no major damage or rust. The exterior top of the roof has three plugged holes, which were used for police equipment/light bars that have since been removed. The police decals have been professionally removed, however, some glue is slightly visible-a good detailing should eliminate the glue from the vehicle. There is a very small dent in the passenger-side 1/4. The front plastic license plate frame is cracked. There is a crack above the driver-side headlight. A small plastic cover is missing from the steering column-does not affect the steering wheel or ignition. There are a couple of holes in the interior roof liner between the driver and passenger seat that once housed a police camera. There is also one small (barely visible) hole in the interior roof liner behind the dome light. The check engine light is on-unknown reason. There is a small tear in the driver-side door armrest. The front cloth seats are in fair to good condition, but will need to be cleaned. The rear seats are brand new-when the vehicle was a police unit, we had plastic seats in the rear and stored the original seats. The original seating has been placed back in the car. There is a small tear in the vinyl flooring on the driver-side, however, the rest of the flooring appears to be in good condition.

European car sales up 8% in February
Sat, 22 Mar 2014Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.
US Ford Focus RS to be imported from Europe
Tue, 21 Oct 2014Rumors about the forthcoming Ford Focus RS are flourishing into what sounds like a very impressive new hot hatch. The latest scuttlebutt gives the first indication about when we might see a few of these fast Focuses on roads here in the US.
Unnamed insiders reportedly confirmed to The Truth About Cars that Ford plans to launch the Focus RS in the US in 2016. However, getting one might not be so easy - the boosted powertrain means the car would likely need to be imported from Europe. That's likely going to keep the total number available in the US rather low. The sources estimate a price tag that's a bit more expensive than the top Focus ST3, which starts around $28,500, plus $825 destination.
It seems that a pretty potent package comes for all of that cash, though. The Focus RS reportedly uses a 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder making between 325 and 350 horsepower, with a torque-vectoring all-wheel drive system to get that muscle to the road. The test mules also wear more aggressive front and rear fascias, dual exhaust tips, larger brakes and sticky tires. It sounds like a great formula on top of the already enjoyable Focus ST.
Watch these videos of an NHRA racer's bodywork blowing off into a crowd
Tue, 23 Apr 2013Just a few months ago, fan safety at racetracks was a hot topic following the last-lap NASCAR Nationwide Series crash at Daytona that sent large pieces of racecars into the grandstands injuring 33 fans. Now, a freak incident at a National Hot Rod Association event resulted in a drag racer's bodywork flying into the crowd at the NHRA Four-Wide Nationals in Charlotte over the weekend. The carbon-fiber body of Robert Hight's Ford Mustang funny car blew off toward the end of a run when his engine exploded, but fortunately, the two fans evaluated after the incident were later released without serious injury.
As you can see in the image above, the body flew high into the air before landing on a walkway in front of the grandstands, a bit of happenstance that likely gave most fans enough time and space to move out of the way. Scroll down to watch a couple of videos showing what happened, including one from a fan's perspective that also reveals what appears to be part of the body's metal bracing landing dangerously close to the crowd.
