Entitled to your opinion just saw you a mile off

VXR's are properly impressive cars but once tuning becomes cheaper etc we'll see the Focus ST run away with things

Bloody awful looking car IMO. Shame the focus is in every driveway in essex already. I'd have the focus but the VXR is a much rarer car in this area.. I dare say thats because it just isn't as good as the focus. Still.. nice enough to own i suspect.
