The tyres are 40mm wider than the DS3r, so obviously have F1 traction and road holding capability loooooooool

It's not, but it's also not trying to put 300BHP through the front wheels

You asked Dave what he'd pick over the DS3R. The focus is a superb car and I've never spoken to an owner who isn't happy with his so I can't understand why you're trying to slag it off? Head to head the RS would wipe the floor with the DS3R. The Clio Cup is another option for much much less than the DS3R; that doesn't seem to have any issues putting the power on the ground.

I'm sorry Arlow but you're not correct in saying that the DS3R has the best performance compared to a modified THP after spending ~5k you're just wrong..

DS3 THP+

Racing brakes £600
Racing coilovers £700
Motorsport remap to 200bhp 230lb/ft £360 inc 10% discount
Filter and custom cold air feed £75 takes it to 210bhp 233lb/ft
Bigger intercooler £600
Pair of Sparco R333 reclining racing seats £433
Oz Superturismo's 17" or 18" with tyres £1000/£1200

So for less than 4k a car that would decimate a DS3r
