la focus rs est amgnifique une vrai voiture de rallye, la clio est très efficace mais ce n’est pas la meme gamme.
focus pour moi sans hésiter, rapport prix performanace avant tout
hit a nerve you prick. 28k for a FORD ha thats your fault. had a ST and it was the worst car i,ve ever owned. it,s a 6 year old ST with REVO knuckle bullshit. and a tunned VOLVO engine so it,s not FORD power. so go and cry to someone else because your 28k polished turd can,t beat a 14k clio. RENAULTSPORT is light years ahead of FORD.
Regardless of how the clio performs. ITS A CLIO! its an ugly little girls car. Plus if its anything like the last cup models it will spend most of it life in the garage being fixed.
both great cars END OF. just read this months EVO mag. only thing is one,s 16k the other 28k. there both performance cars so no matter who built them and where there from. it goes on there lap times and they are identical. but it makes the 200 cup look better because of the price diffrence.
Clio… does not equal this model. According to Evo Track Car of the Year 2009… around Bedford Autodrome (West circuit) it’s 1:31.9 plays 1:31.3 Focus vs Clio. So stop talking shit… please.
My Caterham R400 out 0-100’s a 911, for 22k pounds. Oh wait, the 911 is 30k more! Hmm HOW CAN THAT BE.
The Clio and RS were tested at the track by Evo magazine and those were the times. Same day, same conditions, same driver. I understand you’re upset your beloved RS isn’t much quicker, but what can I say.
Very diffrent cars. The clio is without a doubt a great little car. But ill think you find that the focus has launched a new breed and scale of hot hatches. The only car at the moment for sheer numbers that comes to mind is the new GOLF R.
However the extra torque and creature comforts means the focus will be better to live with. Case in point both cars in 3rd doing 30mph the both put there foot down. Turbo will win this one!
you could pay £3000 on your own car mapping cams exhaust so on and there would not be a big gain
My sister has not got a clio just being a twat! but i do own an rs that willnot move out of my garage untill its lost at leaste £5000 probably next jan LOL
Just compare the two cars usin this tracks times and specifications:
fastestlaps web site and Zepfers web site, do the match, clio rs brakes better, but just that, Focus recoveries are in another level (above of course), and so every other measurement!
no es diesel si no gasolina 2.5 5cl en linea turbo

that clio holds it ground well considering the power advantage.stil prefer the focus tho it’s abit more of a blokes car.
the clio still cant pass the rs so i think the 12k is worth the look on your face.
JAJAJAJAJA, ignorante!

what do you think.. can a mini cooper s works (R53) keep up as well?
every time I see the RS Focus I get mad. because Ford will not bring it to the United States.
YES it will. and you,ll have more fun.
that sucks!! the focus rs is on sale here in mexico
wow that makes me more pissed.

JAJAJA, let´s teach something:
Top Gear Track. Clio=1:34.0 Focus=1:29.3
Hockheim Short: Clio=1:19.1 Focus=1:17.8
Balocco: Clio=3:07.34 Focus=3:00.98
So, stop talking bullshit!!!

i have 200 cup. not that overpriced RS.
Bedford Autodrome West Circuit Focus RS: 1:30,8 . Check all the tracks not just one!!!
The drivers needed to swap to make that comparo legit… The focus didn’t look like it was trying…
Its just the way things are!

America vs. France. Hmmmmm……. Let’s go Fiero’s!
the guy who drives the focus is a pussy, he breaks all the time, and he don’t give much of gas!
the guy in rs is not pushing it, or he just isn’t as good of a driver
