You're clearly not getting it if you dont see my point. I've made it quite clear that it's stupid to say that they are holding value when they are actually LOSING value.
I dont "think" prices are going to drop...they ARE dropping, fact!
I bought one very cheap and my original budget couldve been 10k only in november. I'm Sooooooooooooo glad i didnt spend that as i dont think they are worth that now. Look at Guzzler struggling to sell what looks like a lovely example at 10k now! The guy asking 11700 in for sale section can dream on!
Hope thats made it clear enough
You're missing my point...
If someone decides they want a Focus RS aka 'buying into the idea of one' but can't justify a £30k Focus they may instead buy the proven first marque...
If they're just bringing £30k to the market then OF COURSE they'll just go get a Scooby or Evo for the money if they decide against a Focus. Like now why would anyone buy a Mk1 over a Evo 6/7 or Scoob STI....preference.

Long term passing interest in RS' sparked again by all the hype for the Focus, rather than proper enthusiast... HTH
