Default NEW Fast Ford (With FREE gift!)

In the shops now(ish) as I think the actual on-sale date is tomorrow, but folk seem to be getting their hands on them already!



Every issue comes with a huge free double sided A1 poster. It's an RS/ST timeline, with all the models, and specs. On the other side there are a pair of A2 posters of Focuz!



So what's in the issue?


A 3-door rescued from decay and built up using a huge stock of brand new parts.


All the action at the Beds RSOC track Day.


Loony Fiesta Mk3 with a 600bhp+ Evo engine!!!


Stu takes us through the world of Can Bus technology.


Immaculate big power Fiesta.


Stunning home built YB'd Focus.


Focus STs take on RSs in a thrash stylee.


Old school N/A Gartrac Escort.


The lowdown on exhausts.


800 mile Cossie roadtrip that ends in disaster! Go Ade go!!!!


To complement the poster, a roundup of all the RS models ever made.


Two cars, three tuners, three different budgets. See what the experts recommend.

Plus there's Staff Car shenanigans, a Fiesta meet, Car of the Year, and all the regular stuff!

same here i got mine in the post on saturday

have to say its one of the best i've seen for a while. keep up the good work

and to those who were writing in complaining theres never any mondeo's featured, i'm glad there wasnt any in that issue because your average half-arsed blinged up mondeo would have spoilt that issue IMHO!

theres a blue focus in there with cossy 4x4 conversion, how did he use focus RS brembo's on the back with regards to the handbrake?

i got it last friday mate, sorry for any confusion

i was just commenting that where as most people get it on a saturday before the mag goes on sale in the shops, i tend to get it on a friday, virtually a full week before it's on sale, so for a lot of he time i have to bite my posting fingers for fear of letting something slip and ruining a big surprise you may have planned

any chance we gona see a 300bhp mk1 take on the new mk2 rs sometime dan? i think we would all really love to see which is quicker and best on the track given the same power.this really would show if the new rs is any improvement on the old or whether good old ford just upped the power to make it better than the its older sibbling?
