Ford was pretty clear that the all-new Focus RS is a global model, and that sadly means we won’t get to see a three-door version anymore, let alone an estate or sedan.

Still, for those who crave for a performance Ford estate, the Focus ST Turnier is as real as it gets, and in Europe the facelift has also given it an 185PS diesel engine.

But the RS badge means a lot more to Ford enthusiasts than the ST, which is why X-Tomi went through the trouble of rendering a Ford Focus RS Turnier. It looks spectacular, as all forbidden fruits do. As for the sedan, it’s beautifully executed as well, but I’m not a big fan of the Focus sedan in general.

While I understand why Ford won’t build Focus RS estates and sedans (there is no precedent for such models), I still can’t get past the fact that the Focus RS has gone from being offered exclusively with a three-door body style to five doors only.
