mk 3.5 Focus ST - when?!

[rix]

I may be in the minority but I really prefer the facelift to the present mk3 Focus, and think the new ST looks great. I've notice drivethedeal have released prices on the standard models, and the discounts are pretty much in line with the outgoing car. Unfortunately no sign yet of ST prices...

I've tried some googling but cant seem to establish what kind of lead in the STs will have after the zetec, style etc! Any ideas?

I doubt the Mondeo ST will ever make a comeback. The market that car was in has completely disappeared. Nobody wants a sporty car in that sector any more. Think of the success of the Insignia VXR which is actually a fine vehicle!

No worries! That's just it tho, everyone seems to want a German marque if they're spending their £30k plus.

If the ST is coming early next year then I reckon prices will come about the end of October.
