Default Selling Escort Cosworth for Focus RS ???

Had a 320bhp Escort Cosworth for over two and half years now, been looking into some newer motors and the focus RS keep catching my eye.

I know i'll miss the escort but a newer car would be so much better.

Is there any buying guides on here that i can look through and has anyone gone from an escort to a focus RS ?? if so how do you judge them ???

Cheers

Default ESCOS OR FRS

I sold my auralis blue escos, small turbo to buy the FRS i have now. do i have regrets? not really. Just the fact that the FRS isnt 4x4 and that it dont turn heads as much as a escos. but overall a fantastic car thats as quick as an escos and its newer. my answer to you would be to keep both, wish i had.

We sold our big turbo stage 3 pacifica escos and bought an RS
It has been gone for almost 6 months now and to be honest I haven't looked back since.
The escos was loads of fun and it wouldn't be fair to compare a 330BHP escos to an almost standard RS (Bluefin + sportscat)...
I just like the RS because I just get into it in the morning not having to worry about the oillevel and so on first

Was the escos great fun? YES
Do I regret selling it? NO
If I would have known 2,5 years ago (when we bought the escos) what I know now, I would have never spent that kind of money on the escos and would have bought an RS sooner...

It's just a great (underestimated) every day car
