Focus RS 500 replica......

Seen this before?

Would have me fooled..... until it limped away from the lights....

What st spamming in the title.
Because anyone looking for an M5 is going to be interested in a ghastly bodykitted 1.6 Focus. wker.

[George H]

To be fair, he hasn't done a bad job making it look like an RS500. It would have the majority of people fooled (when parked up somewhere).

Shame it doesn't have the proper seats... still, not a bad replica really.

[wackojacko]

Brakes, seats,sound and speed.

Not far off though, for 8k I'd rather a real RS and get a MK1 FRS.

[Nick3point2]

or for the same money you could pick up a genuine mk1 RS or a mk2 ST, instead of a tarted up 1.6. and with all mods decclared I reckon the ST and RS would be cheaper to insure too!

yes, its a good replica externally, interior is a complete fail, but I just don't understand why anyone would want to buy it!

[TomCooper]

That would fool me until I go up to it and look inside! Aha

I can see the appeal though especially to younger drivers who can't insure the real deal

[Flintstone]

If only we had a thread titled something like 'st Cars In The Classifieds' or similar this would fit right in there.

[Stedman]

I know it's massively geeky, but those 'xenons' don't have washer jets from what I can see, so therefore arn't legal. Little touches piss me off

This really annoys me too!!! Does the seller think that a prospective M5 buyer will stumble across it and say "blow me, I need that in my life"........
