Hey guys!
How are you all? Hope you are all faaaab, thank god the weather is starting to come through, maybe we will have a summer after all...
Today I am driving my first fast ford, a MK2 Focus RS. This isn't a review, I just wanted to go out and drive this car and see how it feels as I have never had a chance to get behind the wheel of one..especially one with such a LOL exhaust system.
Ive always been a RWD girl, so this is a new one for me..
See you all next week, 6 (ish) on a Thursday!
B xx

Don’t do it! every mk2 rs owner i have met who sold it (and bought a mk3 instead) have all said they regretted it and that the mk2 is a much more fun car to drive than the mk3!! we still have ours which is the same spec as yours i believe (the green paint is just insane in the sun right?) i don’t think we will ever sell it

The mark 3 RS Becky is all wheel drive, very clever system that makes it incredible to drive on track and road. I don't have the driving talent that you have but the RS makes it so easy to drive fast. The electronics are so forgiving at speed. Makes me look like i have more talent than i have. I have just sold an e92 m3, i could never drive that as quick as i can the RS

Scorpion Exhaust is actually a UK based exhaust manufacturer. I had the pleasure of meeting them and visiting their factory and that was a great experience. Everything done by hand and etc. You should reach out to them, I'm sure they'd show you around.

great video Queen B, they are brilliant cars and you are right , keep a good firm grip on that steering wheel , the 5 pot turbo in that car is a Volvo engine single turbo , if memory serves me right it is a variable geometry turbo, and I've seen a few variations of those 5 pots making over 500 bhp which is just insane with 6 speed manuals , that must have some fancy race clutch in them,👍

Ford, quite simply one of the best everyday/family car makers ever, if not, the best. Doesn't matter which model you get, just get a Ford, even the standard Mk2 Focus is good, plus the styling of Mk 2's are just on point.
@mikemorris4548
@mikemorris4548 4 года назад
You've got to love the headlight cover design too. I have the standard Zetec, which I'd probably like to tune up some time, under the bonnet, but it sounds pretty good as it is. Yes, love, those vents on the bonnet, do absolutely nothing, that's why they're there. What are vents usually for???, they're to do with breathing ;) lol. Nice bucket style seats, as it's an RS (Rally Sport). The interior plastic helps with weight reduction too, for power - weight ratio given better speed performance. Talking to yourself to the camera, we know, bless you. One last thing, bf or not, you're super hot ;). P.s, the COVID-19 is a joke, believe me.

Good review. My mate got one of these when they were about 2 years old. They are a handful. Think he paid £18k at the time, the values have held rock solid since I think because the last of the 5 pots. The engine sounds awesome though I think this guy has ruined it a bit mapping in pops and bangs or something. Mates just had a cold air induction kit and standard exhaust which gave you the exciting engine noises without crazy exhaust noises. Will be good to see what you think of the mk 3, I haven’t driven one either.

Mk3 will feel a bit soft after the Mk2, I think the Mk2 Focus was the last true Ford Rallye Sport car, it had a different body, the arches, whereas the Mk3's are the same with the RS being tweaked.
@woooster17
@woooster17 4 года назад
Ian Mason Agree.. the Mk3 may drive more ‘efficiently’ but it has lost to much of what an RS is about for me..
@tracktimevideos5164
@tracktimevideos5164 4 года назад
If anything the mk3 feels stiffer. More refined but also more sporty. The mk2 is all about the engine and arches, the mk3 is all about how it drives and kicking the back end out coming out of a corner. This mk2 sounds fantastic in throttle but the pop and bang map is far too much on the overrun.

I took an RS out a test drive then left the dealership a bit disappointed and on the way home I drove past a white ST3 facelift 2010 3 door for sale at another dealership...I took it a test run and bought it because it was only a car length behind what the RS could do and it was easier to drive over B roads and didnt look like a remote control car. Best car I’ve owned would prefer it over my current 2014 S3 dsg. Really miss the engine noise and how it drove over bumps and potholes it was a drivers car. Shame they are getting old now.

I do own two fords, I've got two words to say ' Axle Tramp ' , lol even the slower ones suffer from it. I think you had the best taste of the RS, don't get me wrong and I don't want to trigger anyone who has a MK3 as i respect the car, but the MK3 RS has no road presence at all. I'm sure behind the wheel is a different story, but in standard mode one could pass you by and you would not even notice they are that quiet. Some may like that, but for me I think its a crying shame, especially now they has stopped the RS again. I'm all for big exhaust and bov sounds, but I detest fake farts and bangs, if its not natural it just sounds so gash. Pops and bangs should be from high fuel over run and natural engine performance, not from coasting down the bloody road.

Hi Becky, love your channel followed for a while. The focus RS as for the popping sound on lift off it's a software program that most turbo cars can be programmed to do . And I now might upset all focus 5pot ST and 5pot RS owners now buy saying the engine is not ! A Volvo engine....... it from Renault design believe it or not, Volvo have used Renault engines's for year and year's.......
