Spotted this earlier whilst looking through the classifieds. Looks good value to me! I'm in a company car at the moment so the sensible side of me accepts I don't need to "buy" a car. The crazy side of me wants to go out on buy a this though!

Interior aside, I forgot how good these look stock.

Please don't be one of those people who goes out of their way to find a clean example and then make it look like every other modified version on the road.

Never. OEM is the new modified. They should be left as is, and a one owner, FSH RS like this one would be a great purchase. I'm sure it would never lose money.

Ahhhhh....I want so much!

I'm far too sensible for that. I've got priorities now (or so SWMBO keeps telling me).

That's lovely!

Always read threads about these! They're definitely another itch that needs scratching!

Are there any good ones with less miles about? I guess most will be well used by now!

It seems all fast Fords are shooting up in value.

Just had a glance on Autotrader and seen his and thought it was quite funny.

http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/2014...

"Full Focus RS replica/conversion. A one off. Real head turner, choice of 3 available".

Then there really is another two for sale. Maybe not a one off after all.

That's an error. I remember tests showed it was 6.4sec for 60mph, 16.4secs for 100mph.

Had mine 8 years in june & i wont ever sell it.

Stock cars are fetching good money now so many have been returned to stock to sell on so watch for this.

That car looks too clean for the miles the exhaust hasn't even discoloured!!

I look after quite a few examples at my garage & the ones with lower mileage seem to suffer with more issues, these cars do not like standing around!!!

Looks good! Some good information too. It does look very clean I agree, almost too clean! How do you find them as a daily?
