A word about our car......
The Nostromo
We are driving a 2012 Ford B Max Titanium Turbo. It has 998cc (the Azeri border guard burst out laughing at the small size of the engine) petrol engine, but delivers a best in class 125bhp.
We've done the basic rally mods on it. Steel 16" wheels, a couple of halogens on the front, reinforced suspension, height raised by 30mm and a sump guard at the front. Nothing else.
It is an astonishing piece of kit. Rugged, reliable, fast and powerful when you need and very comfortable. It is an absolute joy to drive and we have all fallen in love with her.
If I was the man in the Romanian Ford factory where it was built, I should be very happy in my work. It really is that good a little car.
Azerbaijan? Georgia?? Scene of some of the best fighting in the VIth century between the Byzantines and the Sasanians. Are there forts? Post some pics of crag clinginging Caucasian strongholds.
