once again we are very blessed to be able to get our hands on.......on this rare........designation to highlight its strictly limited production run of 500 individually numbered vehicles, all of which offered for customers to purchase. Each RS500 carries a metal plaque on the centre console, hand-engraved with a unique identification number from 001 to 500

There are loads more thrills, spills and sensational supercars, too.The infamous Ford Focus RS which was loved by Jeremy Clarkson..







not just another hatch but 300bhp powered hot hatches...a quintet of retro-livered Focus RSs, A limited production run of 500 units (101 of them for Britain) will be produced.





Kilometer from a standstill: 25.4s (the fastest front wheel drive car in this particular exercise - this time was recorded by the Belgian magazine "Le Moniteur Automobile")



The engine will send its power to the front wheels, but will use an active limited-slip differential - E-diff - that will optimize traction in all driving situations



so it came with unexpected paint issues

That's a good looking hatch. The rear bumper/valence looks a lot like my GTI.



I love the shine on this car! Nice work. I can see GTI influence. I read Ford paid design engineers from VW to help improve the design and increase their market share in Europe. The GTI sets the standard for hot hatch. Nice car op!
