Alternatively, drop us an email with a couple of pics, a full spec list of any mods and upgrades, and a few details about your time with the car to fastford.ed@kelsey.co.uk with the subject heading ‘print my ford’ and we’ll pick our favourites for a slightly more detailed review each month too.

KELLIE MK7 FIESTA ST

Ford famously never built an RS version of the Mk7 Fiesta – there really wasn’t any need when the ST was so good. But we can’t help but wonder how awesome a full-fat Rallye Sport Fiesta could have been. Thanks to Kellie, we don’t need to wonder any longer.

She’s owned this ST since October and set about creating a mini-RS by adding an RS-style front bumper, rear diffuser and rear spoiler from Maxton Designs. The rear diffuser requires a twinexit exhaust, which comes thanks to a full KMS Hurricane 4.5in system, meaning this ST certainly barks like an RS should.

An accompanying Vudu Stage 2 intercooler and MAXD Out Stage 1 remap give the 1.6-litre EcoBoost a heftier punch than the stock ST, just like an RS should have.

A set of Bola B10 alloys finished in white give a motorsport vibe, especially as the chassis sits 40mm closer to the ground on a set of lowering springs. Other personal touches can be found on the interior and exterior styling, but this gives us a pretty good idea of what a Mk7 Fiesta RS could have looked like.

JOHN BRADLEY MK3 FOCUS RS

This is not John’s first fast Focus, coming from two previous Mk2 ST versions (both a pre- and post-facelift model) that were both mapped and used regularly on track. The fragilities around the 2.3-litre EcoBoost did cause John some concern at first, but now everything’s sorted and he is confident in the machinery he has underneath him, he hasn’t looked back.

Power has been increased to around 420bhp thanks to a Litchfield Stage 2 remap and all the supporting hardware mods, such as: Scorpion turbo-back exhaust, intercooler upgrade, Mountune induction kit and uprated recirc valve. The next step is a forged engine build and chasing really big bhp figures.

John’s already laid some of the foundations in the shape of a Stage 4 clutch upgrade, beefier EBC two-piece discs and YellowStuff pads, a Quaife ATB diff, and carbon synchros in the gearbox, which have already found their way onto the RS. There’s more to come from this fast Ford in the future for sure.

MATTY TOWERS MK2 FOCUS RS

The mighty Mk2 Focus RS is still a firm favourite with fast Ford fans; if anything it seems to be gaining more admirers as it gets even better with age. One of the best things about the Mk2 RS is the ability to create something really unique, and tailored specifically to your tastes. Matty has gone for the subtle OEM-plus approach with his RS; no aggressive body kits or eye-popping graphics here, but Ford fans in the know will immediately spot this is no box-stocker. The 20in Momo Revenge alloys are one of the first clues, although being finished in black means they don’t jump out unless you know what you’re looking at.

Your next clue is the Airtec lettering on the intercooler, beside which you’ll note a pair of air intakes in the front lower grille. At the back, the massive Mongoose exhaust lets you know this RS means business, while under the bonnet carbon-dipped covers conceal a host of performance upgrades.

ADAM JEANES MK5 FIESTA ZETEC S

You don’t need to have a hugely powerful engine to have fun in a fast Ford. Adam’s tidy little ZS has to make do with just 101bhp, but Adams says it feels and drives like it has double that.

Maybe one day it will, as Adam’s already started with the mods and performance upgrades. A 4-2-1 manifold with de-cat pipe allows the 1.6-litre Zetec SE to breathe more easily, while AP coilovers and Escort RS2000 alloys give a more menacing stance and improve handling at the same time.

Adam has owned the Mk5 Fiesta for just over a year and has covered 10,000 miles during that time. He says it’s one of the best cars he’s ever driven, and the love he has for his ZS will never leave him. See, it’s not always about the size of your dyno graph.
