Video: 2009 Ford Focus RS vs Mk1 RS

July 30th 2008 05:45

UK motoring journal, CAR magazine has revisited the Mk1 Ford Focus RS with road test editor Chris Chilton taking turns to hop behind the wheel with the man behind both RS models, Jost Captio from the Ford RS team.

The two then compare the old and new RS models as well as revealing some technical info on the new Ford Focus RS which made its international debut at the recent British International Motor Show in London. Click on the video player below to see them both in action.

Ford Australia has no plans to import this model to our shores but has plans to build our own 'RS' model based on the Ford Focus XR5. Read more about the 2009 Ford Focus here.

Video: Renault Mégane R26.R laps the Nurburgring

July 23rd 2008 11:15

The limited edition Mégane R26.R is the last and hottest iteration of the current generation Renault Mégane with a blistering Nurburgring lap time of 8min 17s - the fastest ever time for a front-wheel drive car on the famous racetrack.

Powered by the same 169 kW 2.0-litre turbocharged engine from the Mégane F1 edition, the R26.R's engine is mated to a manual six-speed gearbox with a shorter linkage for even quicker gearshifts. Due to a heavy weight-loss program, the Mégane R26.R weighs a mere 1,230 kg which allows it to accelerate from standstill to 100 km/h in 6.0 seconds and to cover the standing start kilometre in a mere 25.9s.

On June 23, 2008, the Renault Mégane R26.R took to the famous Nordschleife circuit of the Nurburgring to record 8min 17s and here's the video of that run.
