I agree you've 10cars one of them has to be a hot hatch!!
I don't think I'd personally have the Focus ST but that's only personal opinion, there are a few to choose from Golf R32, Clio Sport 16v, Alfa 144 GT, Honda Civic Type R, VW Beetle RS or the original Golf GTi, Peugot 205 Gti, MG Metro 6R4 or the Original Mini Cooper... the list goes on..

Exactly, no point having ten cars of similar types, that's why I chucked 3-Series Saloon in. You'd need something nice and refined at some point in your life, and the 3-Series fits that.
Re: the Focus
I'm too tall for a Clio, I already put the R32 in my top 10, I don't like where the gearstick is on the Civic, Beetle is for girls, Peugeot 205 will fall apart, you couldn't get a Metro serviced and maintained these days, and I don't like the massive speedo you get on a Mini ;-)
Plus my last car was a Focus, and I trust Focus's implicitly. Plus I think the ST looks the nuts in orange. |

Yeah I'll give you that with the Focus, I think it's also the fastest of the lot of that type, and probably the most reliable and easy to get fixed, if it does break. It does look deadly in the Orange but... it's just not for me.

My mate is a Jag mechanic and owns about 5 different versions. The XJS is lovely but it's too low down and uncomfortable for me, and there's absolutely no room in the back.
His XJR is really obnoxiously fast and great fun.
His Daimler Sovereign is really nice inside but basically just a posh XJ.
I'll get him to send a few photo's to me!!
Liam getting his wife to drive him around in a Bentley!! after a hard day's work.
btw I was still in work we he sent me this the bastard!!!
