But were delighted they did, and make no apology for being enthusiastic about this remarkable little car with its huge twin-blade spoiler at the back, aggressive body kit, and ballistic performance (0-60 in 4.7secs /163mph) from the turbocharged 2.5-litre, 5-cylinder engine. The most controversial aspect of the car was its drivetrain, which remained front, not four-wheel drive. Ford's engineers developed and patented a system called the "Revo-Knuckle" which was designed to eliminate torque-steer by keeping the kingpin offset angle consistent even under heavy load, and with 301bhp and a massive 324lbs.ft available, that was most of the time. The chassis was stiffened by about 30% and bigger driveshafts, a wider track, lower ride height, and a quickersteering rack translated into remarkably civilised road manners. In the raw, the RS looks a bit of a 'beastie'. With its gaping grille, 19-inch wheels, flared arches, deep diffuser, and a wing that would embarrass a Porsche Turbo, the RS leaves you in no doubt about its intentions. However, it's still a Ford Focus and is good to drive, easy to park, has plenty of boot space, and is reasonably quiet at a constant speed.Finished in Ultimate Green, this 2009FocusRS Mk2 has had a full main dealer service (Arnold Clark and Stoneacre Ford - 11 stamps) carried out every year of its life and has still only covered 16,558 miles.
