So like the RS3 , the TTRS is S Tronic Only - that's a shame for the purists.

Currently on my partners driveway, after a blitz around  the Wiltshire  Country roads,  on a sunny day and of course with the hood down , listening to that cracking melodic warble from the motor and engaged by the gripping backend.

 

Sorry no pics yet George, as driving the m/c is my bag currently but I will endeavour to get some up soon.

Car is the one at Chester to compare

 

Had to be a manual for me.

 

Very similar to this George but mine is a higher spec than advertised here. Icing on the cake cracking deal with the R Estate, very low depreciation . Will drop you some basic photos via email as can't PM you.

Agree George, Harris raved about it. Interesting comment from him about the Focus RS, surprised me that.

No need to worry Ford UK, TG will make up for Harris's comments,  by giving the Focus RS their " Hot Hatch of 2016" award.

 

Normally in November/ December edition.

Love that car George, drove one a couple of months ago.

My Blue Car of the day.

 

I'll take your blue, and raise you two whites! 

 

Spotted locally last month.... 

 

[vrskeith]

This is the colour for me, not bad £68k base price, loads on Porsche Cayman used website ranging from £93k > £110k not a bad mark up for dealerships.

Wonderful filming and it is amazing how they can make fast cars look like they are going quite fast when obviously they are adhering to the UK NSL.
