Hi, my name is Laura, I'm 22 and I'm from Tipp.

Been a lover (obsessed in fact) of FTO's for a long time now, and hope to get one soon.

Only conditions are: it has to be black and it has to be manual :D

Someone asked me recently, if you won the lotto in the morning, would you still buy an FTO, or would you not get something like a TVR, Skyline etc??

My answer, plain and simple: NO.

Instant respect ;)

Instant Respect indeed :) Welcome aboard Laura. You find plenty of FTO owners willing to answer any questions you may have about your future purchase. I'm sure you have seen this thread already about choosing a model http://www.fto-ireland.com/forum/phpBB2 ... php?t=5369

Well, going on the lads advice here, 2009.

They reckon I should tap around in a fiesta for a year and get my parking bumps and scratches first. I think they are right.

And yes, it is class - great bunch of lads and lasses here, very friendly and helpful to newcomers!
