That's simply gorgeous... 21k great price too.

Will you take a p/x for a Focus RS and my lass? She's not a bad cook and is pretty good at cleaning up and she's happy sitting in the house.

Sold to the first person to see the car.

He is true gent and RS enthusiast, so you should continue to see the car on the show circuit.

Thank you all for the kind comments.
