and no matter how much I'm annoyed with ford about my recent focus ST trouble I can't help wanting an RS so much after seeing the Focus demolish the escort!
 
not so sure the escort cosworth they tested was up to scratch, it managed the 0-60 slower than my vectra.

0-60 time as tested back in the day was more like 5.7 which is a fair chunk quicker than both my vec and the RS.
 
Buy high, sell low and bury the evidence...

In September 2002 a Jaguar XJ220 was found in a secret room in the Marlborough Carpets store in Cardiff. The car was in showroom condition and had only 11 miles on the clock (some say 111 miles - either way it's bugger all). Delivered in June 1993, the limited edition supercar was bought purely as an investment for about £415,000. Evidently this wasn't the most astute purchase as almost 10 years later, this extremely rare example was auctioned off, fetching a mere £105,000.
