Since the new focus rs came out i have been thinking of buying one. I have a St170 which i use most days and a low mileage mint saff.

So here my problem....
I want change my st for a new rs but i dont want to sell my saff, however the saff will just sit in the garage unused if i get a focus rs so should i sell both.

Also i suppose you have to consider the running costs of the new rs, fuel etc. What are they like

Im looking for you opinions on the above situation and some advice from new focus rs owners. What are they really like i suppose i need to get a drive in one

Thanks all

 

mate dont sell the sapph, the new frs is a fucking awesome motor mate I have had mine 2 weeks now and am chuffed to bit with it im getting 25 mpg round town 30+on a run and 15ish when giving it some

it really is the best handling fwd motor I have ever driven plenty of go and all the toys

Some pics to help you make up your mind







if you are local I will give you a run out in it

 

Matt thanks for the comments and advice and you have some mint pictures there. Managed to get a ride out in a friends green one yesterday....... fook me they are awesome.
Thats it my mind is now made up im getting one. Going the use my saff this year and then store it for a few years or until i can make my mind what do with it. I think your right about keeping it cause they are going up in price every other week.

Also thanks for the offer of a run out,

Cheers

I was going to get a white one and glad i never as to insure it and tax then running cost plus i dont have a job now so best thing i done BUT if i knew i was keeping my job i would of 100% got one!

 

Get one bought mate. Also get the cossie used too. It does them no good just to sit there and not be used.
