They're sporting on the highway in the UK as it seems. Very good soundquality, but gets a little boring at over 13mins. Still nice to watch though.....

awesome video mate,the mondeo sounded awesome,love the ST220,engine note is just spot on.the DC5 in white is just yummy,always thought the mondeo would lose out on corners,but didnt do to bad considering the more weight its carrying.

any info on how modified the cars were?

Damn, that is a fine sounding V6!! But I have serious doubts if it's stock.

The ST220 is one of the best cheap hot sedans ATM, 230BHP from a 3 llitre. It handles well, like all Fords and it looks the part too with the agressive front and rear bumbers. And its fitted with one of the best looking rims on a mass production car today, the spoked wheels are so simple but classy.

thx for the link :D

iirc they were all stock apart from the rover 220 which had the boost uped,all cars had around 220bhp

the mic was mounted in the engine bay so nothing blocking out the sound ;)

That 220 turbo is rapid! looks pretty pointy too on those roundabouts!
Nothing out of the ordinary, i thought the ST seemed annoyingly slow and that engine just seems like its strangled.
Cheers for the vid :)
