Everyone sold up and jumped ship or something, the love for the RS fading?
As those that are over there as well (as me), I casted my views, RS wins 15 points to 8 based on first test drive impressions.
There still life in the RS, the one that stirred up the Hot Hatch market and was a gamer changer for all others to chase down.
Drift on……

No still here.
Not driven a Yaris but visually it does nothing for me. It is however something I could see the wife driving.
Took the RS out yesterday for the first time in 2 weeks. Why would anyone give up that driving experience?

Still about an will be for a long time yet. Car just failed its m.o.t today because of no reverse light. When they went to change it they realised it had fallen out so just put it in. Annoying that they still failed it officially on the records though. Fuckers

<p style=”text-align: left;”>Had a Yaris pull next to me at the petrol station last week. I must say, I was less impressed in real life that the camera angles in reviews. Still sounds a cracking car but it’s the RS all day for me,but hey, that’s why we have an RS! I’m sure the Yaris boys will say the opposite, you pays your money and takes ya choice….</p>

The RS is the best. 😆👍
Still here but think it’s quiet as hardly driving the car and tbh not driving it starting to not fall out of love but more uhh. Having my seat lowering kit fitted Monday and a few other little bits so will get a drive out and with end of lockdown and summer on horizon let’s hope to get out more.
Seen my first GR in real life yesterday, looked good…. but forgot how small the yaris is 😆
Still here too. Not fallen out of love with her yet, fitted a scorpion cat back in December and that definitely hasn’t worn off yet either 😆
Though looking forward my finance deal ends in December and I’m hoping to raise the cash for the balloon payment. There’s definitely nothing around I’d want to own over the RS, and aside from it being awesome to drive I also love the heritage and the brand etc.
Good to see the love is still about… A modified RS to me is still the best hot hatch, want to fit some lighter weight discs this year, and some different tyres. Still an awesome car.
Though I do have a GRY on order, but the RS stays for sure, it will keep the daily commute off the RS 😀

Hi Guys, I run a Toyota Centre in Lancashire, we are a GR Centre and can say that the GR4 is a mighty little car, there is not a lot that will beat it on a point to point on B- Roads. However, owning RS cars for the last 20 plus years I’m not sure if Toyota will gain anything near the same following as the RS brand. Where the Focus loses out in weight and poise under acceleration it makes up in the character and sheer potential. I wouldn’t knock the Yaris, but running a Toyota Centre I still choose the RS. 🤔
Fast On Race Day
The YGR is not coming here, and if it did….. nope… staying with my RS.
Still here. My Dad passed away a month ago so have had lots to sort out and the RS hasn’t been off the drive apart from mot and tyre fitment. I’m lucky enough to be able to do a three day week now so will be back behind the wheel shortly.

RS for me to, not a German fan, had Jap type Rs, Fez XR2(👍🏻), Corsa GSI, plus many more, it’s an animal and just turns heads stationary over any other hatch!
NB 375, Goodrich hoses, RDU cooler (fitted for the hell of it), gas bonnet struts, Mountune RR, hard pipe kit, V1 cat-back….and RS seat covers!
