Hybrids Vs EVs: 10 Reasons Why Each One Might Be Right For You

We start this drive with hybrids and then switch lanes to the electric crowd a little later.

Driving The Mk1 Ford Focus WRC and RS: Two Rally and Road Legends | Henry Catchpole #TheDriversSeat

Colin McRae and Nicky Grist on the St Gwynno stage of Rally GB 2001 provided one of the most brilliant pieces of onboard driving footage ever. And in the latest Hagerty film Henry Catchpole gets an idea of what it’s like to drive a Mk1 Ford Focus WRC. We also dig into the history of that car's development (which includes a name now more associated with F1) and unearth its links to the Mk1 Ford Focus RS road car. We haven’t done things by halves either, taking the WRC car to a proper, narrow, bumpy tarmac rally test stage in mid-Wales to drive it hard. It’s a real test for this particular car, V10FMC which is currently owned by Girardo & Co. However, it’s a car that’s familiar with tricky asphalt as it took second place on the 2001 Monte Carlo rally with Carlos Sainz and Luis Moya onboard. The road car that we have lined up for this film is no less special either, as it is Ford Focus RS number 0001 - straight out of the Ford heritage fleet. The roads we chose to revisit with this RS were in North Wales and the reason for going there was one man - Richard Parry Jones. These were his local roads and if you’re not familiar with his name, well, he was the reason that family hatchbacks began driving much better around the turn of the millennium. Some say his inputs with the dynamics of the Mondeo and the Focus actually saved Ford in Europe. We hope you enjoy this latest, in-depth The Driver’s Seat film.
