right folks i have been for a test drive in a focus st today and i have to say this is going to be my next car im not even going to bother test driving the others,the owner even took me out in his own green focus rs f**k me sideways that is one flame spiting monster the st is quick but not even in the same league as the rs,but he said the st  can be made alot quicker with about £500 thanks for the feedback but i have made my mind up :laugh:
just make sure u get the st-3 as it has full leather  :smiley:

could prob get a set of them but the heated leather in the st-3 is great :smiley: but would cost a bit more than 500 to get near the rs

This is what I would get http://www.edition38.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=423735&st=0 damnnnn. Bit too much though, I'd take it for 5.5k 6k probs

This has to be the most whored Golf currently for sale - it's posted EVERYWHERE.

Personally I wouldn't touch it with a bargepole - the S3 hardware at the back has been gobbed in there with fabricated crossmembers and look at that tunnel - it's been 'made wider' at some point  :huh:

Dodgy.



Didnt even really at any other pics lol Just saw oak green 4wd 1.8t, thanks for pointing it out though I'll stay way away!!

Ive heard these mazdas don't corner well, think r32 on here has one?
