And its the Ford Fiesta RS WRC...and rally cars are based on roadgoing models...surely that means the Fiesta RS is coming???!!!!




Not necessarily unfortunately. Unless Ford wish to destroy the credibility of the RS brand by making a road going version of a rally car that doesn't exist, then it means that if Ford make another RS it won't be a Focus. However, the days of homologation, when car companies HAD to produce a road version of their rally cars, are long gone. If Ford make a Fiesta RS then it will only be if they feel the economics stack up for making one, and whether they think the reasons they had for not producing the Fiesta RS (which was to be based on the JWRC) in 2004 no longer exist. They won't produce one simply because the rally team is using the Fiesta now.
