um....no.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

TTRS money, and the TTRS is as quick as my mates supposed 380bhp FRS, still slightly slower than a full stage 2 plus k04 though  :sad1:

A lot of the reviews on the TTRs reckon it is a quite un-involving drive......

I looked at one, but could not justify the cost.  As for reviews, I prefer to make my own mind up.

That RS500 looks mean, I quite like the look.

They do look mental though and I really like them. But I would take a white one with Mountune package and save myself £15k thanks.. BUT even at that price they will hold there money VERY well (even more than a £40k Golf R), so it all depends on what you want in a car TBH.
Reminds me of the FQ400 Evo.. Silly money and you can get a 320/340/360 and get it over 400 for little money, but it's not a FQ400!!!

^^ +1, the wrap quality is absolutely sh!te! On the few I've seen the wrap is peeling/bubbling around trim edges/gaps.

For the last 15 years I have been saying I would never buy a Ford (I had one when I was 17 for about a month!) then when I sold my BMW last year I considered a Focus ST. I drove a second hand one, then got a brand new one as a hire car for a weekend.....

I will still never buy a Ford  :signLOL:

The current ST is horrible to drive. The turning circle is a joke, the seats are uncomfortable, the interior plastics are terrible, the build quality is rubbish. None of those are different in the RS. So what are you getting for £40+k there? A fast but sh1t car  :P

Well fella's that's the going rate for one and people are falling over themselves to get there mitts on one, only 107 in the UK.  :jumping:

As Jay states the wrap has been very poorly applied to some cars, I think I'd get it stripped off and run round with the gloss panther black they have been finished in.  :happy2:
Cheers,

Wayne

so is that the 2nd most expensive Ford? Next one is the Ford GT?  lol

Still would never buy one. People who buy Fords don't buy VW's really.

Saw a white RS yesterday. And typical of the kind of owner these attract...he parked it in a disabled bay. No blue badge in sight. He sprinted into the shops too.

Would you like to rephrase that...Myself and Mrs C came from a dagenham dustbin to VW.... :signLOL:
