yeah it's still a focus, like i said, but new ford's have been proven to have a better build quality that volkswagens   although i haven't seen any evidence of this on mine

Thats a shame   would have been fantastic if they did, imo the early focus RS would have been a much bigger hit, if they had given it 4x4

that's stupid. you don't go that low on a performance car. you set the ride up for optimum handling/performance.

Is that a beard trimmer on the back of the roof and a cheese grater on the front bumper Robin?  
 
Did Ford get a particularly good deal from TheCheapNastyUnderbonnetPlasticShite company?  
 
Is that a detachable sled under the rear bumper?  
 
Is there anything uglier on god's green earth?
