For those interested, we went to Allen Ford in northampton this morning with me dad to test drive the new focus rs, well what can i say lovely looking car, looks so much wider and aggressive in the flesh and the exhaust note of full boost is wicked well that was till it broke down anyway lol, i had to do a road side repair on it, text book rs little boot full then on the side of the road with the hazards and bonnet up !!, anway we've got one coming for feb next year, if you get the chance to drive one do so,
