Re: Focus ST

I realise this thread is older than my Granny, but just to say i have owned a 2008 Focus ST. It was a brilliant car and torque was awesome. However, it was not a QUICK car in a straight line.

Re: Ford Focus RS Mk2

Yeah i used to own a 57 reg ST. Was a very capable car, but just idnt excite me the way the MR2 does. Obviously :lol:

RS with another 80bhp odds i sure is a weapon, but shouldnt touch a decent tubby.

Over the quarter is would be no contest i imagine.
