We've got an old forester turbo s with lo box conversion on it. Put it in low box and drop clutch it flys all 4 wheels spinning 

Eats clutches though but pits a smile on your face.

Any of you been in the focus RS? I have and they were rocket ships

I have fella when they came out about almost 10 year ago now? 

About 6-7 year ago I had a Megane Sport and a lad I know let me have a go in the RS and we took both down the bypass, tbh the car wasn't pulling as much from the Megane has I thought. 

Felt nowhere near as quick as the M2 I drove last year, now that was rapid. 

Edit- It was the 2nd gen as well which was much faster than the 1st gen, the lad who's a plumber now owns a Nissan GTR, they are different gravy.

I used to regularly travel from Ipswich to Carlisle and back in a weekend . 

we were kinda in a car share , me and another lad , from here , and a further maybe one or two we’d  pick up at scotch corner or wetherby on the way .

my mate got a Skoda vts with a dvd player in which was terrifying as he’d watch the films as he’d drive . Luckily , I say , he swapped it in for an Astra Vxr which was f***ing rapid , but finally , I wrapped in when he got a focus rs 

Trying to negotiate the a66 , the A1 and the A14 in under 4 hours lost its appeal fairly quickly

I was on about the 3rd gen rs with the 4wd

Car prices? Mrs wrote hers off last month her fault. Insurance offered us £3.5 K less than we bought it for 5 years back with 60k more on the clock. Only a low end car too. 

Cheers, D.

I think the 2nd gen is the best looking by far. 

His was like this.

Yes they should have been the new cossie but ford stopped short by making them fwd, those ones needed 4wd for that 5 cylinder from volvo under the bonnet

Just a little monster, automatic as well but override that with the paddles. 

Think they are running almost 400bhp.

They  run about the same times as a s3 and wouldn't touch a rs3  if your doing a age for age comparison , a modern rs3 will pull 0-60 in 3.4 seconds.

My bro in law has a 2017 audi tt  not a a tts or a ttrs  just the tt with a stage one map and it can pull 0-60 in the late 3s ... 3.9s
