How about moonstone blue the same colour Ford made the cossie in. Im thinking about restoring my cars shell and having it resprayed in moonstone blue i suppose its different. I think that there are a few out there. Or just another thought why not spray it the same colour as the Focus RS that would look the B*llocks. I do like the colur of the Focus RS. At the moment my motor is Met grey so would probaly consider what i sugested. All the best m8

I don't think the datapost cars were S1s originally. I could be wrong though.

to find one for sale, i bet who ever owns one would not
want to sell it.
