my new Focus RS
Hi guys,
ive not posted much on here yet, ive always felt a bit silly because until now ive not owned a 'real' fast ford. Ive had my share of fords to say im 21, and currently own this, as well as a modified imperial blue focus sport and a fiesta zs that is my trackday toy.
But now for the more interesting part......
picked this up last weekend and am completely in love. Still got the focus sport and fez atm, although i will sell the sport reasonably soon now.
rolling roaded at 294bhp 293ft/ib of torque. Spec is quite long, but engine wise its on a tubular manifold, gt28rs turbo and then the normal things exhaust ect.
i know it will not be to everyone's taste in white, but because i have had the sport in imp blue for the past 2 years i fancied a change

Looks really nice in White! I agree they should have done it from factory. I'd re-do the wheels in another colour though, as black wheels on a White car just look like someone has nicked the wheels...
Lovely car none the less!!

Looks great... you'd have been more than welcome with your Focus Sport and ZS Fez though.
Cheers,

Not feeling the carboo bonnet on the white TBH, but each to their own.
Focus and Fez look good though.

They are st170 wheels but the car is a sport, not an RS
They did a run of 'sports' in Imperial Blue, 1.8tdci
