The new Focus ST looks appealing having already been tempted by the older version - wont be in a position to change til later in the year i think

The Focus ST (the older one) was in my list when I was looking a month ago. I test drove it. Wonderful machines but it's far too big for me! (and it's only a focus with a big engine in it, nothing special) I think the size of it would of ****ed me off in the end and all I wanted was a pocket rocket which the MINI is!

I may go Focus ST or something else next time. Having the oppertunity to purchase a brand spanking new Cooper S with all the JCW stuff, it was too tempted in comparison to the Focus ST. The only other thing that put me off was the pre-reg Orange ST I could of got 2 weeks ago was well over priced in comparison to other dealers (knowing the new ST was coming out).
