My new Focus RS #4501 last off production line

Here is my new Focus RS #4501 of 4501

Here is the car on Fords press release as the last Focus RS off production line

It was then given to Autocar magazine to be driven back to the UK from Germany.

Many thought it was going to the Ford museum but it was issued out like all the others, ending up in a Ford garage in Gloucester, and bought by previous owner in Cardiff

And here is the car today

Car needs a polish tbh, its the previous owners clean, but not my version of clean (bloody bufty lol)

I know the guy you bought it off(Paul) i bought my S2 off him a about 18 months ago he had it for abot 10 years or more, well looked after, he even took the original front Recaro out about a year after he had it so that it was like new

I spoke to him a little while back and he said he was thinking about selling it as it just got used on the school run by his missus and he didn't want it getting wrecked, Glad to see it gone to a good home, proper piece of history.

i'd use it everyday... minimum of 50 miles a day really... its only a piece of metal after all...

not really, it wouls be trailered and come out for a show or 2 a year imo! then you can sell it to a millionare or a museum for ££££££ then retire!

i can understand about it being a car and to use it, but if you want to do that, then get a mid numbered one! this is the LAST ever RS ever made! and would be the newest RS ever again the way its looking... but enjoy it none the less!
