To be fair the Focus doesn't look great inside either.

Great article though, makes me want a Focus RS!

Never a truer word spoken. The valver and willy seats are like armchairs... soooo comfy in the leather or valour.

Focus RS, any day, every day

Clio Williams, any day. Love that car. Also adore the Clio V6.

The Focus RS really is a fantastic looking car.

You simply cannot compare the interior of an early 90's french car to a newer car like the Focus RS!

I do love Focus RS's though even though the interior is horrible i think worse than a williams dash wise

I've always had a soft spot for the Clio Williams. Nice read. Thanks.

Got a real soft spot for the Focus RS.

Love Clio Williams. Yes the interior is tacky and nasty (typical French, no?) but I bet it's a bloody good laugh to drive. The Focus RS is pretty tasty too.

If thats Williams plate number 1 I'm dissapointed at the mess of that cam cover and inlet manifold gay plastic cover for such a 'treasured' car.

I hate looking at RS Focus's as the more I see them the more I want one!

It's the half blue steering wheel that makes me cringe!

I must admit I did look at the clio seats and think
'hmm they look comfy, but the interior sure is UGLY and is it me or do the seats look like they are positioned wrong in relation to the very ugly steering wheel and the even uglier dash..'

i have always had a soft spot for the RS

Rossmac · 10 Sep 2008 at 02:52

soft spots are what i possess for the RS

0002 Is in much better condition. 0001 also has a series of small dents along the sill where the cleaners floor cleaner would clip it.
