The Focus RS has always been a bit of a PH favourite, especially the bonkers Mk1 iteration, but one currently for sale on the
PH classifieds
is a little bit special. This 2003 RS has the signature of Colin McRae scribbled onto the sun visor.
The car was originally owned by three-time British Superbike champion Niall Mackenzie, who was a personal friend of the late McRae. Obviously savvy to the potential added value that the rally great's signature would add to the car, Mackenzie had McRae sign it, and after McRae's tragic death in 2007 the signed car (or at least the sun visor) is now a collector's item for fans of the Lanark-born dirt hero.
The car is currently at Parkway Motor Group in Edwinstowe, Nottingham and, surprisingly, they're only asking £12,995 for it - which is about the going rate for a 'standard' 2003 RS. With 40k on the odometer there are a few more miles than a typical RS of this vintage, but that's still pretty low - it is still a Focus after all!
