I felt like i was done with the clio, i had carried out all the work myself and felt it was time for a change. So i sold it to some guy on here and purchased my golf.

I had this about 8 months and did a few bits to it then decided on a change, my bro was selling his focus st3 to fund his business and sold it to me for a very good price that i couldnt refuse. So off the golf went.

Nice motors.

Am I right in thinking the Focus is a step down from the R32 power wise? 250bhp in a Golfie and 220ish in the ST?

golf was just shy of 250 but weights alot more whith the 4 wheel drive running gear so in the real world not much in it on a dry day atall, but the focus is now around 280bhp and would leave a r32 fairly easy now.
 
The phase 1 looked great.. Also liked the R32 in black.

Good shout on the house, you'll be back in cars though. I had a year out and it was crap.
 
Great cars the ST's, my dads standard one sounds great so bet yours really does with that exhaust
 
nice progression :)
I keep looking at the st-3 for my next purchase. what are they like to live with? what sort of mpg are you getting in yours?

Yea great deffo get an st-3 though. With my mods I'm getting about 26-27mpg as a weekly average but it can drop well below that fairly easily!
 
yeah I'm looking at the facelift st-3 I don't like the non-leather seats haha.

Is that motorway miles or mostly town driving? as I do a fair bit of motorway driving, I would be happy if I was getting 30 on the motorway if I'm honest.

youll get 30 easily on the motorway if you sit at about 70 i get about 35 on a 100 mile trip down to bournemouth.
