According to my personal tyre preference, run flats are definitely a fault!

That is interesting. Our F20 is super stable, and very hard to bring out of balance. Even including two complete ice track weekends with DSC Off, the car still hasn't swapped ends yet. I find that the car inspires confidence with its sure footed and predictable handling, particularly over bumps and in slippery conditions.
As for the Focus, it is a lighter car, and fun is often inversely proportional to the vehicle weight.
