I wonder why they arent offering 0% on the RS range. Maybe they think they'll generate enough interest?
I got 0% over 4 years with no minimal deposit on my 200

I become 11% for the 4 RS!
I was really pissed because no more Brembo's as standard, but now I can clearly see why...
The extra power will be kept in check by a lowered and stiffened suspension setup and upgraded Brembo brakes on all four corners. Recaro bucket seats and a blue and white paint job that harks back to Gordini's heyday will likely be part of the package.

Looks like we'll have softcore and hardcore versions of hothatches these days. I'm guessing the same for Fiesta RS and Peugeout 208 RC.
RS, GTi and ST badges are going to be reserved for pumped up, top of class A to B cars with full equipment for daily use and ocasional track days if u want. Gordini and co. will be for time attacking

Correct. Won't ever happen AFAIK.

I was surprised by this:
I'd have thought it'd be much closer than that. Still, at least the 4RS is good at traffic light GP's I suppose.

Did many find their way their way to the US via import?
I'm suprised they never sold it there given the Ford following!
Dunno really. I watched a Jay Leno video recently which suggested they're allowed in the country for a certain number of days only, before you have to ship them out again. I'm not sure how accurate that is, and it almost certainly differs from state to state? In any case, given that the MkIII Focus ST is saleable in the US, it seems logical that a future RS model would follow suit. If that's the case then Ford won't be able to make enough of the things. I also it hope it means that economies of scale mean the car could be even more special.

Funny thing about that drag race vid is that the old 200 looses most its time on gear changes...Who'd a thunk it eh!

did not watch the end of the vid, got bored half way through.
haha love it!
Not surprised the 4 is faster, but I am surprised at the gap, especially when pausing the vid on the speedo @ circa 100kph it's a fair lead. Considering very little separates them 0-60 (6.9 for the 200 vs a claimed 6.7 for the 4).
Lots of variable in there as well, undoubtedly it goes more than well enough though. Stick it through some corners and see who has the most fun

Local Renault dealer is letting me know when they've got their demo in in June. Unfortunately he told me it was in "Liquid Gold" and they're a Renault sport specialist!
Also Missus' uncle works at Ford and when they have one in for longer than 24 hours he's letting me have a go in a Fiesta ST so will be good to compare.
Also Renault and Ford are opposite each other in my town so hopefully back to back comparison

OMG that's a fountain of knowledge, bookmarked.
That has a typo, the trophy has the spyder description.

Just looked at that PDF brochure. Says there's keep fit windows in the rear of the 4RS? devastated

Ye I noticed this, and the V6 has another write up too....
What a poorly executed document! It was really clever to use the Spider text twice – once accompanying the actual car and once accompanying the Clio 182 Trophy.
Not one picture showing 200T with standard wheels – I know it won't look good, but even so...
And what's that comical pedal layout shown in the 200T section:clown:
Even still refers to the 200 with Perfohub suspension:S – You can't get the staff, etc.

can't remember off the top of my head but its littered with mistakes. The v6 is an R8 gordini lol!

There's wind down windows in the back LOL?
Reminds me of my mums old J reg 1.4 Ford Escort LX.

Wind down windows come in the 18995 "cup" version which comes with a hard dash as well if the pdf i saw was correct. For full fat, add 1000 for the lux pack.

I was looking for a used 197 or 200, possibly a very low mileage Trophy as a daily, but might wait to see what this car turns out to be like. Its definitely growing on me. Might make an ideal commuting car. Like that cup spoiler too. Wouldn't have it on a road car though i dont think, would look a bit too barry boy for my liking. Not really into big spoilers on cars.

Not sure if serious? If you are :clap:
I definitely am...will be visiting a dealer this weekend to hopefully work something out...but I can't decide on colour, almost hourly I cycle through them all (except LY) as being my favorite, the one I'm going to order, then promptly change my mind. Grrrr.

I have never ever bought a brand new car. I think this is going to be my first. I love everything about it, its not trying to look like a race car so the mrs and I can turn up places without feeling slightly ashamed, if i feel brace enough it looks a hoot on track, and with a remap in the future it should remain interesting to me. I honestly cant wait to test drive it.
