However, on a B-road, things start to go awry. When the diff is fully loaded, the car tramlines like a bastard. When it isn’t, there’s a looseness and in-between there’s torque steer. On twisty roads, you don’t drive it so much as manhandle it and hope for the best. Being kind, I’d call it hairy. Being honest, I’d call it scary.
But what’s worse is the sense that you’re not driving the best that Ford can do. You sense that this is sop, a stop-gap car to keep us sweet until the Cosworth eventually turns up.
You never had that feeling in the old Cossie. Gary was out on his own. You knew that there was never going to be a better one, and there never was.
So, would I buy an RS? It’s good value. It’s properly fast. It’s very handsome. But because of the B-road issue, I have to say, I’m not sure. I’d like more time with it but after an hour or so, I think I’d still have the Subaru, and put up with its pig’s face.
Jeremy Clarkson
Second opinion from Angus Frazer at the Lommel Proving Ground in Belgium:
It’s true to say that by already having the best-handling car in the class, Ford had a pretty good starting point for the RS with the Focus. That’s no guarantee of success, though; after all, the ST 170 is nothing special. This car, on the other hand, is.
