HeHe!

Right the new Focus RS will probably have 4WD with about 240bhp, but there will be a Cosworth version with over 300bhp from a newly developed 2.3i 20V SCi Cosworth engine with a Garret Turbo and Complex 4WD system. An ST Focus will be launched soon with about 200bhp to rival the Golf. Doe's this answer ur question? :wink:

Even if you had the money, only 50 were imported in Greece, and they are all sold out now.

That's some nice news about the upcoming Focuses, it will be a good era for Ford!!

I can back him up on that, I read it also, the Cosworth will also be sold as a kit you can "DIY", but it wont be as effective as a factory fitted one! but I read that the new RS would be nearer 290-300bhp :? i think :?

I dont understand the "limited 'loss' car" bit, but I am just forwarding on what was in EVO or CAR mag earlier this year, it also had info on the new RS and the body kit of the WRC car for the road cars... :P

If you are interested in the upcoming Ford Focus RS read this article and you can also see the spy shots. Autocar is my personal favourite magazine for news and pictures.

I think that it would be very difficult to make a better RS (i don't mean mechanical more hp etc)

uh huh, I dont like the Alloys that much, they are nice, but i've seen some really nice ones on some Focus RS's (and I mean REALLY nice :D)
and on a slightly more technical note, what about those brakes, I heard that most dealers that sold the RS recomended the Brembo Upgrade, as the current Brembo brakes wore out to quick!
Also, according to Clarkson, on B-roads the car is a twitchy because of that diff, so if those issues are sorted in the 4WD model, then I will more likely agree with you (but as sod's law works, improving one thing means something else gets worse :()

You will not believe this!!!! You know how I said I really would like to get the chance to go in a Focus RS? Well my prayer has just been answered. A guy at my uncles office has lost his license for a year I think for speeding and has given his car to my uncle for a year. And the car? None other than a Focus RS :D :D :D
