Stupid subscribers pay for all his motors plus advertisers. He has even got a McLaren Senna on order to add to his Aston Martin, AMG GTR and new TVR on order.:clap:

Do said subscribers actually pay money to watch his ramblings?

  • And I've gone right off the RS3 idea. £40k plus for a car that#'s slower than my Yeti and has an automatic box...

  • I'd have one in a heartbeat if I had the money

  • Be it 'chav' or not. This and it's 400 ponies bring a smile to my face. The more I've seen of the mk3 the more I've come around to it. Purely for its driving characteristics. My local ford don't

Having had three I still think they are a great car.  And that includes a blown engine in one of them.

Really, for what people use a car for most of the time they are really good.

All the practicality of a 5 door Ford Focus, but fun biased rear handling with the safety off a little front assistance and a playful character.

I only sold mine to get an Apline A110.

 

As an overall package I still find it hard to fault the Focus, other than it's weight of around 1550kg.

And weight is something a lot of modern 4WD cars struggle with.

I loved the Alpine.  Such a good car.   Regret selling it, one of the few cars I've regretted.

Also bought a 720s McLaren though so 2 two seaters with a family of 4 didn't work so Apline had to go.

Sold the Apline...  then bumped the McLaren and found out how fragile they are (front end bump cost over £200k on insurance) so I just bought myself a Citigo from the salvage auctions and the Armoured Personnel Carrier instead.  :D

As fun as that looks, I'd just buy an M2 and have all of the performance from day 1. At some point it just becomes more expensive to modify than it does to buy faster new.

It's only got 470bhp, he must be gutted. Consoled himself by buying yet another car. It's even used. Ferrari V12 GTC with 4,000 miles on the clock.:biggrin:

Would you bother?

Wonder who did his stage 1 tune, possibly Mountune? Another unhappy Focus RS owner.:giggle:

Unlikely; Mountune do Ford approved tuning packs, to the extent that you can have them applied pre-delivery and retain the full Ford warranty.
