THE Fiesta RS is on its way as part of Ford's dynamic dozen.

Ford launched their latest range of models in Scotland last week and dropped the biggest hint yet that the Fiesta pocket rocket is on the cards.

The Fiesta ST, pictured, is already the entry-point to Ford hot hatches.

However, the Blue Oval revealed earlier in the year, along with the GT supercar, that their new performance division will contain 12 models.

With the stonking Focus RS already here that leaves 11 more places to fill and the Fiesta should certainly be one of them by 2017.

The car would target hot hatches like the VW Polo R and Audi S1, and could borrow its exterior styling and mechanics with the Fiesta WRC car.

That would mean the RS Fiesta could be all-weel-drive, with power coming from an uprated version of Ford's turbocharged 1.6-litre EcoBoost unit. There's also likely to be power over Power 250bhp bursting from under the bonnet, with a hardcore sports chassis set-up.

If Ford do build the Fiesta RS, it will be based on the current model and will arrive before the next generation Mk8 Fiesta in 2017.

Prices would likely start at around £23,000 – and worth every penny. Go on Ford, please build it!
