I was interested to read in the most recent Sunday Times (UK newspaper) that the Ford GT features at number five in the world's best supercars - also that one was for sale at $206,762 (£129,950).

The paper gives the car a 5 star rating.

My scanner has just gone into 'smoke mode' so the bottom of this is missing.

However this is the bulk of it, I will try and get my scanner working to give you the missing (but not vital) piece at the bottom.

Edited, see post below

My pleasure! It was actually 2 scans joined together (because it's a big size newspaper), so I've been very clever and whizzy on the computer!

Thanks Neil! :thumbsup

Still bugs me when I hear "Clarkson had trouble with the alarm system" and they never mention it was aftermarket... :bored

Most of the time, I just hear people say, "Clarkson thought your car was a lemon"

I'd be happy if they knew it was an alarm system. Aftermarket or otherwise.

I mean, who cares about an alarm system in a supercar????

Clarkson is a showman, on the other hand Harry Metcalf runs EVO magazine, without doubt the best car magazine in the world, and he knows what he is doing. The Ford GT was EVO's Car Of The Year for 2005.

Here is where you can order an original copy of The Sunday Times for that day. I just ordered one, it was 19 pounds including shipping the U.S.
