YOU AGAIN!

I can tell why people comment like you, you need to compensate for your short commings! as said, its not the size that counts, but the way you use it!

when you compared the 2ltr engine, what did you compare it agaisnt... a turbo falcon with ARP chip and the works....

if you had some smarts and compared it with something else in its class (DUH!) you would of found out thats its directly on PAR with everything else.

the polo GTI has a 1.8ltr turbo. 110kw! its priced MORE than the XR4!
the ford focus has the SAME engine yet the XR4 has 3kw more and the focus is ALOT HEAVIER!

In the UK the Fiesta ST is the XR4 here. ford Aus took the same car in the UK which is the fiesta ST and the Focus ST which are XR5t and XR4.....

so yer.. Fiesta XR4 = Fiesta ST!
