Hello everyone
I work for Bristol Street Motor's and today I had the rare opportunity to drive a FOCUS RS.
The branch manager of our storage depot by Birmingham Airport purchased it off one of his colleuges as he didn't like the door sill's because they didn't match the green of the car :homme:
So I was at work at around 1pm and out the corner of my eye I see this bright green rs pull up in the car park. So I ran out to have a look and got chatting to the man who owned it. One thing led to another and before he left I said
" I don't mean to be cheeky mate but could you take me round the block in the rs as ive never been in one before"
and his response was
" here mate take it for a spin"
to my suprise he hands the keys over into my hand so i jump's in and slowly drove it off the car park...
then when i was out of his sight i booted it and oooo myyyyy god
the power and torque is unbelievable...
near as makes no difference 300 bhp!!!!

12th September 2009, 21:08
you lucky lucky bastard! That is my dream car, im aiming to be able to afford it in 5 years lmao:panic: The nearest thing i've been in is my mate's brothers ford focus st which is tuned up to 301 bhp, and the accelaration was brutal. And for the guy who said they don't handle that well....you're very misinformed and need to research before you post.
All the reviews i have read point at its amazing grip and handling, so no, they are not shit and neither are they poor handling cars, rather the opposite:y:

ive never liked them
look far too chunky, and overweight
plus, too much power in a hatch is stupid imo, id rather have it in a car with a big enough wheel base to be stable with the power
in conclusion, want a proper hot hatch? get an r26r
my 2p's worth anyway
Prickle
12th September 2009, 21:37
Want my conclusion? get a Saxo.

R26R is THE hot hatch template imo... so focused as standard.

Get to drive one everyday, that picture does the color no justice!

i agree
it's made purley for one thing, to be lightweight, nippy and very chuckable - the only trait's a hot hatch should have
and still a lot of tuning potential
AlexR
12th September 2009, 21:48
For all those that say an R26R is too hardcore? How about an R26? Just as quick as the focus, a lot cheaper, all of the luxuries and mod cons you'd need.

But according to ford fans all the reviews are biassed/and the fords not driven properly lol!

Wooo wooo I never said it was the best hot hatch but considering I drive new 1.25 fiestas and focus titaniums on a daily basis this was a little treat and I agree the megane is a far more agile chuckable car just I've always wanted to drive an rs and now I have that's all

Doesn't come with any sort of parking aids I see ha ha
Lush car though, but not in Green, Maybe a dark Red would suit :-)

Focus RS looks shit.
I don't understand why people get so excited about them tbh, there are much nice cars around. And the lime green looks shit.
-GG-
13th September 2009, 15:07
I think they look great! imo they suit white amazingly though, not so much green

If someone had got that bodykit custom made for their ST before the RS came out, they would have been branded a chav. Its got a lot of road presence but its too lairy, will look shit in a few years time when the noveltys worn off. Same goes for the paint. Like the orange.
