In terms of aesthetics I think the Megan is one of the worst looking hot hatches ever, the front end isn’t bad but the sides and rear are a mess, the Focus though has to be the best looking hot hatches ever (as long as it isn't green).

However in terms of how they drive even the less extreme Megan R26’s have such a good reputation I would be far more interested in having a drive in the Renault but the Ford would be the one I would buy.

@RSTBADBOY im just wondering about one thing why should you have a combi that you cant yous outside the track?

@vwbora1point8T not brand new!!!

i don't but new cars as you get stiffed with VAT.

Better to buy a used 6 month or 1 year old for 30k or less depending on options!!!

I forgot the lotus exige in that list as well!!!

@milzy83

uh, over 75% of the cars you named are >30,000. hhaha, where do you buy cars? i wanna know

The video was not time sync'd they sync'd each corner so the cars enter each corner at the same time to show the difference in how they entered and exited the corners. So say the focus looked like it was ahead at the end of the vid makes no sense

[mariuskorpi]

hey you don't buy a Focus to take your kid to kindergarden....so the Megane is just for fun and Focus too

[bele77]

if you watch it at the end line carefully, when that man is driving both cars, you will see that there is no way that they are 1.2 secs apart. i would even say that the focus finished before megane. even though if it's not, the fovus cans be still driven as a family car, while the megane can't.
