I have recently bought this focus as my wifes run around got it for a good price due to the state of the paint work, had lots of marks and swirls, but for £6300 i could nt resist as i know dam well that with it being used every day and the kids climbing in and out it would end up which more.
Well the buffy got the best of me and i thought i would see what i could do with it.I have spent plenty of time polishing cars over the years but this was more of a full correction than a polish but with nothing to loose apart from 25 hours over 4 days these are the results so far, just wish i had taken more before pictures.








There were scuffs like this every where





Finish after machining and spot wet flatting








Progress so far still a few bit that im not fully happy with but looks so much better very pleased with my efforts so far

 

very niceeeeeeeeeee :P

 

How you doing Loz aint seen you in ages, hows the car and whens it getting some proper power

 

That looks great, think you got a right bargain there!!

 

Hi mate, im good thanks, car wicked just started to use it again now just saving abit of money up and going to get some more power later on in the year. it works at the minute so i just want to use it untill it breaks!!! haha, we should go up to Ashby foleville again soon(or what evers its called).

 

Mine should have it first outing for the june meet, with the new speclets hope it the only time i fit a gearbox this year

 

Looks spot on.
£6300 sounds a bit too cheap for an Focus RS, did it need any work aprt from the finish?

 

Looks fairly mint from the pics. Any gremlins?

 

im looking to get one of these soon, yours looks nice, (id take off the mud flaps tho )

 

nice effort mate

 

very nice and a good price too

 

Looks very nice

Great buy, is it high mileage

 

Its got 100k on so a little high, but as an every day driver for the wife no point in having a minter But she washed it today with out me moaning so may be a new leaf has been turned.
had it about 3 weeks an no gremlins or problems yet need a couple of bits , but typical ford nothing is easy like you cant just get pedal covers
But apart from that seems a cracking little run about.

 

very nice mate, bit os a steal at £6300 nice find!.

 

Nice one fella.That is a cheap RS.
