They're all rapid cars!
Honda will last for ever, the Seat leons i've heard have shit loads of electrical faults but they're not as common as the type-R or the focus RS. I'd go for the Type R, good all round hot-hatch smileys/smiley16.gif

Type r's are way to popular for my liking.

I like the leon cupra r's better then the other two, but i never knew they had electrical faults, maybe something to stay clear of till seat have sorted it out, after all, dont want your car going up in flames from a little electrical fault.

you don't get orange focus rs's!!!, they were a ltd edition only about 2000 built to uk spec, and they were only ever sprayed in 1 colour - Purple/Blue depends which way you look at it i guess, lol

the orange one your talking about is the new focus st.

I'd go for the Focus RS if thats an option, but not if you meant to say the ST...
