Ford Focus RS mk2 vs Audi S3?

I'm stuck between the choice of two beautiful cars. The Mk2 Ford Focus RS in white or an Audi S3 2L Turbo 265bhp.(Again in white)

My dream car has always been the RS, however since having a ride in my friends Audi I can't help but think the benefits of the audi in the longrun might outweight those of the RS. I know the RS has an exceptional driving style that will put a smile on your face which is why I'm reluctant to venture away from it.

However I can't help but the the luxury and comfort of an Audi would have its benefits? I understand its less bhp than the RS but slightly quicker at 0-60mph.

Just afew questions regarding running costs of each vehicle?

Servicing costs for each?
Cost of tyres as I know this is one major expensive for the RS?
Fuel costs? Average MPG and cost of a full tank? How many miles do you get out of a full tank?
Any issues I should be aware of? I.e Fords Rust whereas Audis are solid.

Any experience you could share would be great, along with anything I've missed!

I would go for the Audi because the 4 wheel dive system is much better compared to the ford. If your a boy the Audi will also get you girls

If you are worrying about fuel and tyre costs neither car is suitable for you. 0-60 means nothing in the real world unless you are doing track days. Test drive both, choose the one you a, like and b, can (if either) afford to run. Parkers website does a running cost comparison if you need help with costs.

Test drive both. I would opt for the Audi purely on quality of build.
