This is the 2009 Ford Focus RS, caught in leaked company pictures ahead of its London motor show debut six weeks from now. The 300bhp hot hatch sports a bright green paint job, with black accents on the mirrors, spoilers, diffuser and the leading edge of the bonnet. The Ford Focus RS will bring genuine 150mph performance and sub-6 sec 0-60mph acceleration when it goes on sale in Britain early next year. The new RS will take the basic Focus ST elements of a 2.5-litre five-cylinder engine, front-wheel drive and develop them further with a new Quaife gearbox.Entry price is likely to be below £25k and Ford hopes to sell between 5000 and 7000 Focus RS models per year. Check back shortly for more official details.

Re: Ford Focus RS: Official pics leaked
But made from what? Cotton wool?
I would prefer Rhubarb Crumble and Custard as engine oil.

Christ Scummy, your sources are good. Can you offer me any info on the next BMW due to come out in the next six minutes (Approx.)?
I've heard it may be called the PETUNIA Concept.
