Errrm isnt that the old shape focus? if so then it definately isnt going to be out next year as the standard chassis needs modifying to cope with the 4x4 running gear so id wait until its out before we can say anything about it (and it looks very similar to the focus RS doesnt it?)

The differences from the RS as far as I can tell are:

Front bumper
Front wheel arch air intakes
Wheels
Seats (even though they do look standard)

Is it possible to tell from the picture if the chassis is modified? You couldn't tell the difference between a standard Escort and an Escort Cossie (bodywise)until you tried fitting panesl/bumpers.

Despite my dislke of the Focus's looks (much preferred the Escort) I have to admit that this and the RS are much more pleasing on the eye than you run of the mill versions.

Sitll, I won't be changing my Scoob. and even if I come into a bucket load of money, I'll still keep it - I won't be buying a Ford Focus.

I was told at the motor show by a Ford rep that there will not be a Cosworth Focus 4x4 version released.
It's the same reason as above, the 4x4 drivetrain cannot be fitted to a Focus.

Cheers,

Rob.
