they look fucking WANK in 4 door,,,,,, what a fucking stupid idea

we sold our st3 and its been replaced by a silver 4 door st2,,,,,,,,, prob the worst focus ST choice available,,,,,,,,, if you change the wheels no fucker would even see it

they parked it beside a focus ghia too so it looks like a focus ghia 4 door

dont seem to be too many fans of the new st on here, i saw one in the showroom for the first time last week and was surprised how much better they look in the metal, taking it for a test drive this afternoon. im curious as to why its getting a slating, is it the ovlov lump or the lack of an rs badge

yeah on the outside,,,,,,,,, but all the badges on the inside are volvo,,,,,, when we got our FIRST focus ST we had to order a new batt cover as that said " volvo" on it,,,,, still does on the screen wash cap too

so lets recap the situation for a moment

the ford ranger is actually a mazda, the ford mondeo is a jaguar and the ford focus is actually a volvo


so what do ford actually make

all the comments of hate are from the owners of focus RS's who are worried that there cars price is about to fall lower than the value of a rs1600i

the frs is a top car but i wouldnt want one as a daily driver plus the build quality on the new focus is miles ahead of the old one, i got rid of my 3dr zetec cos i was sick of all the poxy rattles and squeeks
