Description

The Focus is a compact car designed under Alex Trotman's Ford 2000 plan, which aimed to globalize model development and sell one compact vehicle worldwide. The Focus was primarily designed by Ford of Europe’s German and British teams. The second generation Focus RS is the Focus that Ford originally claimed was unlikely to manufacture, however they did and the latest ‘hot hatch’ was born. One of the most controversial aspects of the car was its drivetrain, which remained front, not four-wheel drive. After awarding the car five stars, this is what the team at Auto Express had to say about the new Ford Focus RS when launched: “The engineers have done an amazing job. It’s got storming performance, amazing handling and grip, but also real character thanks to that charismatic five-cylinder engine.”

The car we have here was first registered on 30th April 2010 and has had just three owners in total, having covered an exceptionally low mileage of just 16,978 (at time of catalogue). The car is presented in fabulous condition in gleaming Frozen White with optional black Recaro CS ‘Dynamica’ seats. The car has an excellent service history, with the most recent service having been carried out in July 2023 by Sytner BMW Tamworth less than 200 miles ago. The car is fitted with optional Sony Bluetooth connectivity and air conditioning. Supplied to auction with a V5C registration document, MoT test certificate valid until September 2024 and a comprehensive history file. Consigned by Fraser Smith
