Default Focus RS 2003

Been considering selling this for a while now as I’m really not using it much anymore. I have owned the car since jan 2008. The owner I purchased it from had it from new and used it for his lengthy commute, he racked up the 94k in motorway miles. Since owning it I have done just over 15k so the car currently has 110k miles on it. The car is a good clean example, always maintained at SCC and rob or pat there know the car well (previous owner used SCC too). It drives a treat, its been 100% reliable in my ownership and has never let me down.
Spec:
2003 Focus RS (53) plate – will retain current plate
110k miles
FSH
Recently refurbished standard wheels (mint) and 4 x good falken tyres
EBC brakes all round (done 2010)
Recent mot so has ticket until august 2012.
Tax till Feb 2012
Mods:
Retrimmed leather/alcantara steering wheel
Scanguage
HID headlamps (kit)
JEK 4-1 manifold
Roose boost and coolant hose set.
Bluefin superchip
Forge Actuator.
Stainless exhaust system (mongoose)
Decat pipe (original cat will come with car)
Runs approximately 280 bhp (estimate)
Now there are a couple of marks on the car, mechanically its faultless, it sailed the MOT with no advisories. The car suffers from the usual road rash on the bumper, and some scuffing and a couple of cracks in the lower part of the front bumper from my driveway. The lacquer is also lifting on the driver’s door this doesn’t show from more than 3 feet away but is worth mentioning.
I am selling the car as I don’t really use it, and I could put the money towards the house. The car comes with 2 sets of keys, and the original RS leather wallet including the ford history and handbooks. I have all the history from the original owner and my ownership.

It’s a genuine car and I’ll probably regret selling it but I don’t see a need for keeping it, and maybe I’ll get something new in 2012. Not considering part exchanges.

Price is £6500 as it stands, will still need to transfer plate so not available immediately.

Car is in north London available to view whenever convenient

will get pics soon as i get some time, but it looks like standard FRS with minty mint shiny wheels
