Here we have my Focus Cosworth which I bought as an unfinished project, now complete with the exception of a few cosmetic interior jobs i.e. carpet not 100%, oil gauges to wire plus a few other niff naff jobs to make the car perfect.
The car started life as a 1.6 Zetec (still on V5) which a few years ago had a slight frontal accident which recorded it on a Cat D, which doesn't really matter when you take the angle grinder to the floor and replace it with Sierra Cosworth items so that the engine and running gear can be fitted.
The engine is a late green top 4x4 motor but it has a 2WD T5 gearbox and 7 ½" LSD rear axle with Avo coilovers. New poly bushes fitted throughout. Bilstein inserts on the front with compression struts instead of anti roll bar, brakes are AP 4 pot callipers (new pads) with 330mm discs. New bias pedal box with steel braided brake lines.
Its running stage 3 with new green injectors, new 3 bar map sensor, new group A coil and leads, new plugs (071's), new sensor kit fitted (dizzy cap & rotor arm, phase sensor, crank position sensor, ACT sensor & water temp sensor)
The outside is mainly ST170 including headlights, grill and boot spoiler all brand new from Ford. Fog lights removed and replaced with brake cooling ducts. Wheels are Comp's Mo 5's 17" x 7 ½ J ET 35 with good tyres all round.
Inside is half leather Recaro's, ST170 oil gauges (not wired up), RaceTech 2.5 bar boost gauge, Escort cossie clocks with aftermarket rev counter and RS 4 spoke steering wheel.
It has a Clifford 650 mk2 alarm with intelistart, smart windows and total closure.
6 months tax, 12 months MOT
Car has covered about 2000 miles since conversion
Any questions please phone Richard on 07734 264 768

Yeah it was Geoff who I got the car off, perhaps putting "unfinished" in my add was a little unfair ha, it was finished to a point there was just a few jobs that needed sorting, its a cracking car, just a shame I have to sell to fund my new house!

It had the focus MP3 style wheels on it before the comps but after I put the AP's on the comps where the only wheels i had that would fit due to the off set, think they'd probably look better in silver or a grey colour, unfortunatley due to my new house i've no time to sort them out...

Obviously a lot of work gone into this. Total sleeper looking. That would be so funny burning off some boy racer in his Saxo at the lights.

Hate to say it mate, but you're gonna have to break it for that price. Would have sold by now otherwise.

Agreed.

Its been for sale for a while and i have fancied it for a while too.

lack of funds is my problem but i wouldn't offer that anyway.

Thought he might be interested in something more sellable which is why i offered swap deal.
