When the Focus RS was first conceived, everyone thought Ford had gone completely nutty, what with rear wheel drive bias and a “Drift Button”. Now Ford engineers have taken things a step further and developed the worlds first OEM approved “Drift Stick”. Developed by Ford Performance engineers the Drift Stick...

It’s the all-new 2017 Ford Fiesta ST, but it’s missing something very important… The third-generation Fiesta ST manages to pull 147kW from Ford’s all new three-cylinder 1.5-litre Ecoboost engine; a similar output as its four-cylinder predecessor. The turbocharged engine propels the ST from rest to 100km/h in 6.7-seconds thanks...

Been known as the best surely comes with a certain level of stress. You’ve raised the bar, and the expectations are high, with competitors no doubt hoping to knock you off your podium. Perhaps this is how Ford feels with their trendy Ranger. The Ford Ranger caused quite a...

I knew after the first few metres of driving new 2016 Focus RS that everything I loved about the Fiesta ST was just magnified in this. A savage beast you’d back in a pub brawl with its notchy six-speed manual gearbox and vociferous 2.3-litre EcoBoost engine. It’s a slightly...

The meaner Focus RS prototype is back at the Nordschleife flaunting a larger rear wing. Remember the glorious Focus RS500? It was the very best Ford had to offer in terms of performance for the compact hatchback’s second generation and now it seems there’s a new hardcore version in...

Seen covered in swirly camouflage is Ford’s next-gen Fiesta ST which you can expect to see undisguised in 2017. The new model boasts a more aggressive front fascia, dual exhaust tips and rides on chunkier wheels shod in low-profile tires. Judging by the spy images of the regular 2017 Fiesta,...

A Mustang in South Africa can be described as a motoring phenomenon. It will make you famous. Polish the ego. Get you girls or to the front of a queue. Nothing short of a BMW i8 garners this much fanatical rapture and it’s all a bit strange to be...
