Advantages: Speed, Power Disadvantages: 3-seater, Expensive Parts
The McLarenF1 was designed as the ultimate road car. It was to have minimum weight, maximum driveability, practicality, and lots of driver appeal.
It was designed in 1990 with the concept already laid down but still without the team knowing what engine to use. Whatever it was, it had to be large in capacity yet light in weight and also compact. Turbo or Supercharging was out of the question - it had to be naturally aspirated but still with a power output of 500+ bhp. Eventually the team decided on BMW's unleaded 6 Litre V12 with quad overhead cams operating four valves a cylinder with variable valve timing. The engine block and heads are cast Aluminium alloy. The cam carriers, housing for the variable valve timing, and the casing for the sump are all a magnesium alloy, bringing the engine's weight to just 573lbs. The engine develops ...

This is possibly the best lens I own for my Canon EOS 30D DSLR. (And for £65 what a bargain!)
This is an incredibly light lens, and as I understand it, it is made entirely from plastic.

It's also very cheap in comparison to other prime lenses, and I would consider it much better value for money than the 50mm f/1.4
As a prime lens, 50mm fixed, f/1.8 it can be used in relatively low light without a flash since it lets so much light through to the camera... Shorter exposure times means your subject has less time to move. It also has a pretty shallow depth of field, so a perfectly focussed subject can have a wonderfully blurred background.
The tiny box this comes in contains the lens, front and rear caps, and a small leaflet ...
Advantages: Fantastically economical for its class Disadvantages: High torque from engine can be expensive on tyres
I've had a Focus 1.8 TDCi for a little over a year, following a two year stint from a Fiat so I may be a little over enthusiastic about the Focus! However, I've been driving for over 20 years (Oh God that long...) and have driven a silly number of cars over this time.
I think I've found a car I finally can settle with for at least the rest of the finance term!!! Which is unusual as I get bored very quickly!
The feel of the car overall is one of comfort but without the disconnected feel you can get in some larger cars and you really can have the confidence in the motor to pull hard when you need it.
Inside, the car feels roomy for its class and the seats seem to hug you quite nicely. I used to have to sit at a slight angle in many of my older cars to reach pedals and steer yet in the Focus I can sit in a relatively normal position ...
