Ford Fiesta RS

[kappa84]

A hardcore version of Ford Fiesta ST with a 1.6 turbocharged engine, 200 HP, 0-100km/h in 6s and an approximative price of 17.000£.
More info on autoexpress.co.uk.

I like it's design, I like it's power, if it's true then Renault Clio RS' supremacy is for the past.

I can't afford it though...:no:

Yes true ,
I bought mine app. 30.000 Pound
Fiesta is 17.000 Pound

And by the way, 200 HP for an 1.6 engine is quite impressive.

Actually Ford doesnt impress me much...
I prefer MiniCooper S which is 167 HP and and and which you can easily modify it to 220 HP..
And lets make a small calculation
Brand New Cooper S 16.240 Pound
Modify it about 2000 Pound

18.240 Pound I know 1.240 Pound more but this is Mini Cooper S not Ford

This is all about personal preferences.
If I had 20.000 E ( about 16.000 Pound) VW Golf GTI at 200 HP would be my choice. :wub:

It looks good on paper,but the bottom line in theory is there is a limit on how much power a front wheel drive can use.The natural thing for a car to do when gunning it from a set of lights is transfer of weight from front to back hence the loss of traction,yes you can use a lsd but if you have ever used one in a front wheel drive setup you will remember it for ever i think the RS Focus was terrible.

This is why you never hear of say the Big boys producing vasts amounts of horse power in a front wheel configuration it just does not work,all the big boys use either rear wheel or all wheel drive setups.The only reason is they can get the power down on to the tarmac.
