Video: watch Santa Claus drift a Ford Focus RS

Feeling festive yet? If not, then allow us to show you Father Christmas himself, hooning around in a brand new Ford Focus RS. Obviously.

The big man is presumably having a couple of days of downtime before his slog around the world distributing gifts. And given the snowy landscape he lives in, who can blame him for wanting to cut big skids in the new RS?

It’s Ford’s way of wishing us Merry Christmas, its latest Snowkhana video (inspired by Ken Block's Gymkhana vids, of course) being a carefree cocktail of film references, drifting toys and that Focus RS finale.

Claus even gets chased by the Lapland police, who can’t seem to resist a powerslide themselves.

And for the film and TV buffs out there: can you name all the star cars which feature in toy format?
