Focus if you want to be noticed, and to drive like a lunatic everywhere.

Audi if you want to swan about and pretend you're more important than you really are.

I'd go for the Audi if I had an R1, surely one lunatic-mobile is enough?

cant get the st3 due to having 2 kids and two car seats!

The ST3 has bucket rear seats and you cant get childseats and a person in the back!

I work for one of the biggest companies in Europe and a big world wide player so they can afford it!

Focus.............

I'm on my third company Focus and they are great cars, truly great. Never had 1 break down in about 100k miles over 3 cars. Just serviced and driven. 2 of them where from new and canned from new and never complained.

Decent motors especially when your company stumps up most of the running costs. Thumbs Up

The st's a load of fun, Had the pleasure of picking one up from swansea about a month and a half ago. (some nutter on a ninja passed me on the way out). I had to turn off the m4 and take the a48 back to cardiff then slow down just so I could boot it again. Laughing

Just hope you don't have to pay for your own fuel though. Sad

Still drive quite nice tho, chuckable round the bends, good quality cabins and good standard stereos IMO.

Peugeot 407, seriously under-rated, they are sexy, have good performance and have better interior than a Focus.
