I can see the XR5 Turbo now.... Show some hip 35 year old in a suit and tie standing next to his Golf GTi, a real German engineer walks up to him and say in GERMAN, "Do you want to un-pimp your ride"?... the GTi driver can't understand, so the GTi gets pwned by a cement block and the XR5T appears behind it, the following slogan appears...

Ford Focus XR5 Turbo. The true German hot hatch.


Or they could take the Aussie approach... show a super hot German girl getting off a Lufthansa plane (or whoever) at the airport, speaking German. Then she gets abducted by Ford engineers and bundled into the back of a black GT-P. You then next see her sitting at a footy match with the engineers and smiling, eating a meat pie. She then swears off at the umpire in a thick German accent but in english...

Ford Focus XR5 Turbo. The best of Germany, with an Aussie attitude...
Aussie Attitude? i didn't know it was any different from a UK spec car?
XR5 Turbo, powered by Volvo. Free Parking at the lawn bowls clubs
