    Ford Focus RS New Option Pack Includes Limited-Slip Diff

    This is quite fitting since I am getting the Focus RS on test tomorrow but Ford has turned it up a notch with the introduction of a new ‘Option Pack’ for it’s hot hatch.

    We all know it is a serious driver’s car but Ford thinks the new Option Pack fettled car will go down a storm with fans and enthusiasts.

    The party piece is the addition of a mechanical limited-slip diff (LSD) from Quaife which has the job of distributing torque between the two front wheels. Ford says that the new LSD will deliver extra traction, so drivers can maximise acceleration at the exit of the corner. The Focus RS Option Pack thanks to a few cosmetic tweaks too;

    • Nitrous Blue paint is standard
    • Roof and mirror caps are finished in matte black
    • Spoiler is also finished in matte black but gains blue RS logos
    • 19-inch black alloys get RS centre caps
    • Brake calipers painted blue
    • Recaro seats gain Nitrous Blue leather updates

    The Option Pack should make it’s way to South Africa as the Focus RS is one of their [Ford] ‘Global Performance’ models.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
