Traction for Sale: The Story of Ferguson Formula Four-wheel DriveUntil the 1970s, four wheel drive was almost exclusively found on utility vehicles like the Land Rover and the Jeep. And almost nobody considered four wheel drive, especially full time four wheel drive as a major safety feature to be built into any type of car. That is, unless you were tractor millionaire Harry Ferguson or former racing driver Tony Rolt. Ferguson shared the dream of Rolt and his original business partner, fellow racing driver Freddie

Until the 1970s, four-wheel drive was almost exclusively found on utility vehicles like the Land Rover and the Jeep. And almost nobody considered four-wheel drive, especially full-time four-wheel drive as a major safety feature to be built into any type of car. That is, unless you were tractor millionaire Harry Ferguson or former racing driver Tony Rolt. Ferguson shared the dream of Rolt and his original business partner, fellow racing driver Freddie Dixon by investing in their fledgling company, and giving it his name. The Ferguson Formula, as the product of Harry Ferguson Research Ltd eventually became known, incorporated full-time four-wheel drive, anti-skid braking and a fully automatic transmission. Starting in the days before Harry Ferguson became involved, to 1994, when Ricardo acquired the successor company, FF Developments Ltd, Traction for Sale tells the story of the companiesand the people behind them and covers all the well-known vehicles in the Ferguson Formula saga, including the Jensen FF; the Ferguson-Climax F1; the Ferguson-Novi, Paxton Turbine and Lotus 56 Indianapolis racing cars; the Lancia Delta, Peugeot 205 T16, Metro 6R4, Ford RS200 and Escort Cosworth rally cars; the AMC Eagle and the Schuler and Overfinch Range Rovers. And it covers those models less well known for FFD technology, such as the Chevrolet Safari 4x4, VW Golf Synchro, Ford Scorpio and Sapphire 4x4 and the Jaguar X-Type as well as those for which FFD supplied essential transmission components, such as the McLaren F1 and Jaguar XJ220

Please do NOT reship items like body soap that have been returned
Scent: Seagrass & Driftwood, Size: 32 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Scent: Seagrass & Driftwood, Size: 32 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
So I've purchased this twice now, I love the scent and I love how it lathers up, overall very happy with the produce so long as I get a product that wasn't previously returned. The 2nd order I received, it was clear that someone had replaced the soap in the bottle with some other kind of liquid and returned it and I got it. First off that has to be dangerous and hazardous. As you can see from the pictures, something is wrong with this product. The first product I got had a clean scent, was clearly a body soap liquid. The 2nd product I ordered was more water, smelled had virtually no scent at all. Unfortunately I had already poured it into my soap dispenser so it's now not returnable. PLEASE DO NOT SHIP OUT RETURNED ITEMS!! It's dangerous

Good soap
Size: 5.3 Ounce (Pack of 4)
It was so good that my friends took some for themselves. Without asking. Bastarts... good deal though, smells very nice! Especially that whisky one. The coarse texture makes for a great clean!

Quality Men’s Soap
Size: 5.3 Ounce (Pack of 4)
I purchased this bar soap for my three grandsons and my granddaughter’s boyfriend. They are all in their 20s and liked the fact that the soap lasted longer than the soaps they usually use. I did give them each a different scent and they appreciated the fact that the scent was not overwhelming, but subtle. Generally speaking, young men this age usually do not purchase quality soap or personal hygiene items mainly because of cost. They all were very pleased with the surprise gift and proceeded to use it immediately. I would compare it to the expensive Dr. Squatch bar soaps. I bought these on sale and felt like I had gotten a very good deal. It is a pleasure to give someone a gift that they normally would not purchase themselves. I will continue to shop this website for future purchases and wholeheartedly recommend Rinse and Robust Men’s Bar Soap.
