From 1 RS to another RS reveiw after 2 days

[KernowPete]

Love it, best colour too (the green is too much I think). I had the same dilemma a year ago - RS4 or nearly new Focus RS. I went for the RS4 in the end and haven't regretted that one bit, but I still love the FRS and fast Fords in general.
I absolutely loved my ST220 which I had for 4 years. Obviously nowhere near as quick as my RS4 but with a Pipercross VIS kit, Mongoose exhaust and remap it went and sounded fabulous. And it never missed a beat in 4 years and 45k miles.
Enjoy!!

I'm sorry but unless you are 20 years old, this car just doesn't make any sense to me

Looks like a max power car, its all abit too try hard. I don't care how good it is to drive, I would rather cycle to work then look a tw*t in that

Can you tell I think you've made a mistake

Anyway, as long as you like it, thats all that matters

+1 to all of that.

A few years ago we had a Sierra Cosworth on loan for a week where I was working and I blagged it most evenings. Did a lot of miles and smiled a lot at first but soon got frustrated with the iffy interior trim quality and the binary power delivery. Fast Fords are not for me.

But so long as you think you'll be happy, then that's the most important thing.

If the Focus RS had 4wd I possibly would have considered one, as it is def no. Too much power through the front wheels-wet roads will be a nightmare/interesting LOL. But as others say as long as you're happy....

I thought you would have kept the cab longer considering how much you spent on mods.Are you stripping the mods or selling as it is? (I seen your ad for the alloys)I really like the the Focus RS so. from me.

Thought about it quite a bit over the last few weeks so decided to go for it, if its not for me then i can always jump back into an RS4 or maybe even try the new RS4 or even an RS5 but for the time being its the focus RS

[SKG_C63AMG]

You nutter

You had your cab absolutely perfect

The noise with the roof down was out of this world!

YEP been there and done it now you of all people should understand that lol, another box ticked but believe me I WILL BE BACK ha! ha! just going to have some fun modifing a focus RS for a few months lol

[SKG_C63AMG]

sorry dude, but that front end looks good, but what the hell happened to the rear end, what's that on the roof?

Was my template that hard to put together that you had to sell the RS4? LOL

Yeah made the template drove me mental lol.
The focus RS was reversed through halfords ha! ha! it wont be bad when its all modified up running a respectable 400bhp and yes 2 wheel drive should still be fun, been in 4 wheel drives for too long time to come back to the real world for a while

Dont get me wrong ive never regretted owning the RS4 from the day i bought it just fancied a change, lifes to short not to enjoy as much of it as possible

Thats all good but come on comparing a focus RS too a sierra cosworth!!!!!!!!!! how many years between them

[SKG_C63AMG]

its like alot of people say every one to there own, i just like to try different cars hence ive owned 38 cars in 18 years of driving 8 motor bikes and the focus RS is going to be number 39

Good luck to you mate

you're right, I understand completely ... just didnt think there were other mentalists like me out there !

Thats what initially caught my eye to start with was the road presence they have and i was very suprised how well it handled in the corners so fun track times ahead if im still aloud to tag along with the RS4 gang

[HYFR]

its still an "RS"
