2012 Ford Focus ST

If Ford do endow the new Focus ST with 250bhp that should give it performance on a par with the old Focus RS – 0-60mph under 6 seconds and 163mph –  leaving plenty of room for the Hybrid 2012 Focus RS to break past the 350bhp level in standard trim and offer a 5 second 0-60mph.

let me guess you and SHINO drive VW, and fish with daiwas.............
Lol..Nope, Honda, Nissan and Shimano. I do own a couple of Daiwas but far less expensive to maintain than the 2 Fords I have owned...I was going to say something about cheap American manufacturing standards but then realised that my next present to myself is going to be an Accurate reel...

I'm talking about FORD which is origionaly an American brand!!
By the way I think the Focus is a magnificent vehicle. I just think FORD vehicles in general are full of **** once yo drive them for more than 3 years. This is from experience and friends who have Fords.
