      As a MK2 RS owner, I have to say she isn't probably as fast around the Ring as the newest generations, but as aesthetic, sound, no interferences from the electronics.. absolutely wonderful, so many feelings through the steering wheel and the car herself.. I won't change mine!

    • @joojoosasa

      To each their own, I suppose. I've driven many a hot hatch throughout my life, and the best one I've ever had the pleasure of being behind the wheel in was a 2004 Ford Focus SVT. It *did* have 4 doors, but it wasn't AWD, and it had a 6-speed manual, so no DSG/DCT, etc. I owned that SVT Focus for three years, and enjoyed driving it just as much on the thousandth drive as I did the first. It had a few tasteful modifications, like a header-back exhaust, cold air intake, Diablosport tune, Ohlins (I think) adjustable suspension, very modest chin spoiler/side skirts/rear diffuser kit, gunmetal Euro-spec multi-spoke wheels, short-throw shifter, and a nice sound system. To this day, I haven't driven a vehicle that comes close to the sense of connection I'd get while driving that little Focus. Everything about it was perfect for having a little fun on some twisty back roads while never coming close to touching unsafe or overwhelming speeds. I've been on the lookout for a super clean, low-mileage 2004 Ford Focus SVT ZX5 in Competition Orange for about 5 years. Hopefully I can find one & pull the trigger on it, because I miss that car more than any other that I've owned, or even that I've just driven before. If you ever get the chance to take an '03/'04 Focus SVT for a spin, take it. They are incredibly good little cars.

    The 5 things I Love
    1. ENGINE - 2.5 5 Cylinder Turbocharged Engine
    2. POWER -The way the power is delivered to the front wheel drive
    3. LOOKS - The looks of the car, especially in real life
    4. RESIDUAL VALUE - How they hold their value
    5. FEEL - The feeling when driving it
    6. SPECIAL KITS - RECARO SEATS, THE BODYKIT (Big Wide Arches, Wings, Diffuser), THE OPENING OF THE FRONT BONET USING A KEY
    PS: I own one in ULTIMATE GREEN - in MALAYSIA

I have an Mk2 ST & it's a great car & has been tuned with Dreamscience mod XRS with all associated mods needed for the power gains, its around 310bhp which is plenty for me. They do have some problems like many cars & as long as you take care of them they are generally alright. Definitely recommend picking one up for Auto top NL 👍🏻
