Don't get me wrong, it's a good job but you get my point about people's claims about car's which are actually replica's. Things like Escort Cossie's are plain simple to indentify due to the rear arches sticking out like a sore thumb, but that Focus looks spot on!

If you declared all the mods it would probably cost more than a real one to insure, or atleast the same amount!

Looks nice, but you have to wonder how seriously smacked up it was for them to change all the panels to RS parts!

I don't see the point myself..... Why spend all that money building something that looks fast, but is infact shit slow??

If they'd spent the money on a 2.1 Zetec Turbo, decent suspension and brakes and left it looking fairly standard, then it'd get my vote.
