Awesome. Love the facelifts. Cabin noise from that engine is unreal. My only gripe is that they are relatively quiet from the outside on the standard exhaust.
What the price of consumables/servicable parts like compared to say a 1*2. I want a car to track, would love something V-tec but I'm struggling to ignore the peanuts it cost to run and repair a Clio.
No doubt the Mazda will be quicker, and without big money you just have to accept the R32s performance. I did look at an MPS in white before I bought this, the depreciation scared me a little although it was top end value. For what you can buy them for it is an awesome piece of kit.

I'll edit and upload the best of all my photos over the next few days, along with a route!
3 of us in a Focus ST, 3 more in an EP3.

Yeah the black car is a McLaren P1. Both the guys worked for McLaren. That was at a service station this morning just after we had got off the train.
And thanks to an alternator that broke the day before I departed, the R32 didn't make it. Devastated isn't the word tbh. I had to passenger the...
Just got back from two weeks and 3000 miles around Europe. I'm not the best with a camera, just thought a few people would like to see the cars/scenery we saw along the way. I'll use this primarily for cars but we've been to some unbelievable places so I'll throw in some scenery. Over 700 photos...
Don't get me wrong, it is in everyway quicker than my 182 was, and probably quite a few other hot hatches. It isn't as fun as my old 182, but I bought it because it is a far superior car in every other department.
Drive one. It's more of an all round car that happens to be quick. Much to heavy and lacking in abit of steering feedback. Great car, but there are much better options if you want a 'hot hatch'
