Default Mk1 frs or Subaru Impreza

Ever since the MK1 focus RS came out I've always liked them and think styling wise Ford got it spot on. Currently I own a MY00 Impreza which is pretty much standard and to be honest I really enjoy owning/driving. Of late I've been thinking about getting a FRS. Now if I was to sell my Scooby which has 60000 on the clock and in good condition I'd be lucky to get 4k for. The focus's I've been looking at with lowish mileage (40k and under) seem to be about 10 k ish. What I would like to hear is opinions from people who have owned both. Is the focus worth 6k more than the Subaru? The Road surfaces where i live are more like those in Bosnia than the uk i.e shite. So I can't see the focus being capable of having the same amount of grip as the Subaru?.How do the running costs compare? I'm a ford boy at heart, and miss the RS scene. I have two children ages 4 and 3 months so obviously the scooby is more practical, but to be honest that doesn't affect my choice. Cheers for any advice/comments
