Hi all,

Am looking to sell my car in the next few months and cant decide on what to get. I have narrowed it down to two cars, the Ford Focus RS (New one) or the Audi S5. I know they're totally different cars, but I have no kids and dont use my car for work so am not bothered about economy.

Which would you rather have?

Being honest, neither of those two.
for that sort of money you can buy something really interesting, if the practicality side isn't important.
Maybe a Cayman?

depends if you want to blend in or stand out.

An S5 will just look like another audi to 99% of people whereas the ford is pretty unmistakable.

I am being drawn to the RS more than the S5 now. I'd love an S5 but there seems to be more pros for the RS and the reviews are better for it too.

Just gotta sell mine first!

Off the top of my head.........

Budget - 20K (ish)
Economy - Not bothered
Space - Enough for me and the missus, but would prefer at least 4 seats.
Engine - Want at least a 5 cylinder to give a better engine sound
Power - Ideally no less than the RS

No astra VXR, porsches, not too fussed on BMs, thats all I can think of atm.

Fire away.......

Depends if you want something to look like a wan*ers chariot, or something sublime to drive?
If it's the latter, you are missing out by not driving one.

It runs rings round the other two.
