I agree with the charm of having something different. Especially when there are companies providing lots of tech toys and hot ups for them. Go for it.

You goal should be to beat a Focus RS!!!
The Focus (XR5 and RS) and the MPS3 share the same chassis, only the RS has had extra time spend on certain areas as it had to get 300HP/440NM to the ground compared to the MPS3 260HP/390NM.

I am so excited to get it, I have already booked a RAC Tuning Day in February and have already got an idea for a custom exhaust set-up.
