Shame they concluded that rating while not actually knowing fuck all about the car!! 
Price: £17,495
Top speed: 150mph
Max power: 221bhp
Engine: 2.5l, five cylinder, normally aspirated
Transmission: Six-speed manual
0-62mph: 6.8secs
Ford's RS cars have always had something of a reputation for thrills and spills, but since the last Focus RS rolled off the production line two years ago there's been a noticeable gap in the Ford range.
The ST looks set to change that, and there's talk of this being Ford's best hot hatch ever. It certainly looks the part in its lurid orange signature paint job, with gaping air intakes, 18" alloys and twin exhausts.
As you'd expect from Ford's RS team, it's a fantastically involving drive and unlike most of its counterparts relies on a highly tuned engine rather than a turbo for the awesome grunt.
The Focus ST makes the top spot on our list because it marks a return to form for Ford and the car itself embodies everything we think is great about a hot hatch, cheap, fun and stupidly fast!
