Own a 2wd and a 4wd saff, both running big power. the two of them are goooood fun but the 2wd was much cheeper to get the same grin factor. The 4x4 is untouchable on B roads though and looks good with the 4 wheels spinning up in tight corners. Just bought a focus but could not bring myself to sell either of the cossies so really cant help you out. Think you should stick with cossie power either way though and "dont" be tempted back to CVH.

Best of luck
