Looks like a standard shell to me, (may be a LHD RS shell though)
Modified tunnel to take rear wheel drive ! I dont think so.

it says you would espect to pay 20k for a 5 year old focus rs? wtf
dont know if this is genuine, surely you would need part numbers etc to back it up if ti was from m-sport, but why would it not have perspex windows and surely if it was just a show car the shell wouldnt need to be to wrc spec?

The only thing wrc about that are some of the stickers
When I did the Mk6 Ford Fiesta launch with Ford we had a very similar car to that come with us to all the demos, it had a 1400 or 1600, I cant remember which exactly but they main mod were a few holes drilled in the back box foir that "rally" sound
IIRC the panels fitted like shit but the cage was proper, nothing like that has

It looks like a dummy shell that M sport used for the motorshows etc andrew gallacher bought a few of these one being a telefonica replica from m sport it looked exact on the outside but it was a bog standard focus another was a focus rs that was used for the press launch had tinted windows when you looked through there you could only see the tops of the seat , but then you opened the doors it was just a black wooden frame with handmade fake headrests.

this looks like the one tim finch had, his was the simulator focus wrc which looked exactly like this, the tv screen was put in front of the car and the steering wheel was connected to a ps controller under the bonnet!!!
to be fair hes not saying its a race car
''The shell was ex M-Sport and was Gardemeister's show car.
This car has never been on the road; never turned a wheel in anger.''
no doubt it went thru msport to be done and to look as if it was the real deal as it does and he says its a show car and they used it for a simulator, looks and stickers etc need to look the part and no nead to get someone else to do it
is cool tho
if you have a rollover focRS then you could make summet cool of this
was prob made of a preproduction test focRS or summet huh

What do you mean by that Dave?????
Because he's Scottish then it's a rip off? There's plenty of decent REAL cars on our excellent Scottish roads.


There's just as much cocks tryin too sell shite down your neck o the woods.............

the show cars are 1.6 tdci with a WRC kit on them and are normally pushed everywhere, the glass in them is that dark you have to really look to see the bog standerd interior but a quick look under the backend tells you its a copy
if it was a show car for M SPORT then im sure they wouldn't skimp out on the proper wrc roll cage and stick a heres one i made earlier bolt in roll cage.last time i checked M SPORT wasn't skint
almost as funny as this guy's claims

the ad does say its got transmission tunnel from front to rear
so it will take 4x4 running gear
the seller was obviously on drugs or he took pics of the wrong car
cause that thing dont have a tunnel in it, just the standard exhaust tunnel
