Default Newbie here :)

Hey guys, I'm Josh and I'm 21 from Essex

Anyway, I've been looking around for a new car for roughly 6 months. After a lot of debating over what car I wanted, I finally found the ideal one the other week. Been to see it a few times to make sure it was exactly what I wanted and put a deposit down just over a week ago.

It's currently having the wheels re-powdercoated to get them looking mint, then I'll hopefully be picking it up next weekend!








Spec is as follows:

- Focus RS #0540
- 53k
- FSH
- Cambelt change @ 47k
- Wheels powdercoated gloss black.
- Sump changed
- Alternator replaced
- AP racing organic clutch and release bearing
- Thermostat housing replaced
- Front discs and pads replaced (DS2500 pads)
- Rear discs and pads replaced (Redstuff pads)
- AE/Tuna remap
- Mongoose S/S cat-back
- Graham Goode Racing tubular manifold
- Graham Goode Racing sports cat
- K&N Gen 2
- Samco boost hoses
- Pace header tank
- Baileys DV26 (being replaced by Forge DV007P
- SPA design digital oil pressure and water temperature gauge
- Nomad boost gauge fitted to A-pillar
- Carbon fibre dash surround
- Ghia interior map light
- Ghia intermittent wiper stalk
- Carbon fibre splitter (needs replacing)
- Carbon fibre foglight surrounds
- US-spec rear lights
- Private plate: M8 FRS

Opinions?

Cheers guys, yes I'm pretty lucky to be able to afford one at 21 I have worked hard for it though!

I've down to a few Passionford meets at Southend seafront, don't know if many of you go down there regularly? If so, be sure to come say hi if you ever see me in the RS
