Just thought I'd show my mk2 estate. Started off as focus estate sport, how a 1.8tdci is sporty is beyond me. Anyways. Need an estate for the economy and as a builders van for the house.

It started like this. (Not the actual car as I didn't take any when it was standard).








Now have fitted the st front bumper, skirts and face lifted the rear with the optional Zetec s rear diffuser. Oh and the optional spoiler. All ford parts





Now got the Rs 19s









On the road with a mate following

 

Next plans Are black roof lining and interior trims. Will have to dye my roof lining and also remove the roof rails to clean up the look

 

That looks great. I prefer it with the st wheels on

 

nice car

 

I'm in two minds on the RS wheels myself. Love the look of both. Tempted to try and find some 19" Mondeo titanium x sport rims, the ones that look like st, just an inch bigger. Am putting the st rims back on for winter with some snow tyres so will run it both ways and see how I feel.

 

Done a good job I preferred the ST wheels aswell

 

Wi

 

Like the look of that, very nice, agree with others prefer ST wheels.

 

I'm sure I read on here recently that the cmax wheels in that style were 20's

 

Can't do 20s, the mrs is suspicious already that something has changed. Bless her 😂

 

Really? So Shen can't visually tell you've probably went from wheel trims to 19's. if that's the case then you will get away with 20's no problem. If her eyes are that good you could go and buy a rs4 estate and she will never know haha

 

It's comical, she's not a bloody clue. The only thing she notices about a car is the number plate.

 

Looks brilliant

 

That looks epic!! Well done!

 

Looks nice. Well done.

 

Cheers

 

Just seen these 19s on eBay. Very very tempted

 

Ive been toying with the idea of buying a focus estate for a daily and puting a st front end on! Looks the business brother

 

Looks smart that, I had RS wheels on my old ST, looked the business

 

Very smart. I liked it better on the st wheels rather than the focus rs wheels.

The other wheels your getting will look better.

Your rs wheels will look nice on my mk3 mondeo.

 

Looks nice that.

 

Can't beat a good estate



Looking great there, really transformed the car. I concur with the others in so much as the ST wheels looked better. Very nice though.

 

Love the proper st estate. Will Put the Mrs in a mk3 stealth grey one in a couple years time when the prices come down.

 

Went to Knowsley safari park with the kids today, maybe going round the monkeys 3 times was excessive











Also running my st wheels with winter tyres on, prefer them to the RS 19s, will keep them as back up wheels

 

If u put blue lights behind the grill it would make a great traffic cop car! I remember gojng to long leat in my dads car when we were kids and the monkeys ripped his Citroen bx to shreds

 

😂 Removed my washer jets, rear wiper blade and Ariel before we went through. They nicked them last time 😂 Kids had a ball though, no point in having a car unless your willing to use it properly

 

That mate is my sentiments exactly lol

 

I defo prefer your car with the st wheels on.

 

looks great, have you lowered it?

 

i prefer the RS Wheels

 

Lowered on eibachs, supposed to the 30mm. Ended up a good bit further though

 

Few bits done over the past months. Face lifted the dash to the newer clocks and trims. No pics of this other than this one on the way to London for drifting

Bit of a mishap of not pulling my handbrake on tight enough and it ended up rolling into the house. The air was blue that day.



Had to go into works Bodyshop so spurred me on to sort out fitting my vents and splitter. Also had the front end painted and the rear 1/4s as a few rust spots were coming through.







Thinking of ditching the roof rails now for the smooth look. Will mean roof lining down so will probably upgrade to black st interior trims and dye the roof lining to match. Will move onto this after that. It's only been sat 3 years waiting for the throttle bodies to go on. Keep messing with the estate though.

 

Love it... looks mint

 

Shame the car rolled into the house lol. Glad you got it sorted.

Were the speedo clocks an easy fit then?

 

Was really pissed off when it rolled, swore a lot. But next day we were able to laugh about it.

Clocks were easy to fit and program. I'm a ford tech so had plenty of experience with ids to know how get them programmed. The engine malfunction was a boost hose splitting, managed to pick one up from a dealers down south next to the event we were going to

 

Looks really good

 

Well being a ford tech and using the ids helps.
