Focus estate with a twist - 10/6/17 update
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

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.

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

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.

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

😂 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

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.

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

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