Ford Focus ST

Yeah Ant, Golf R power for less than a GTI. Good deal I think.

Spec a 6R Polo GTI up and it be the same price (or even more) than the ST. And far less enjoyable to drive .... and the ST is a MANUAL.

When you're right, your're right mate! Never thought I would actually consider anything like this. And the only paid extra are the premium paint options. Even the Recaros are standard! And Manual too.

It's looking like a total win over the new Polo and Mk6 Golf GTI. However the R's platform is just so tempting to work on!!!

The R's have their own issues .... mainly gbox ... both DSG and manual when you are chasing lots of power ..... better off buying an S3 instead.
