Finally got some decent photos of my focus and I've always wanted to make one of these thread so here goes, firstly heres a photo of my previous car which was a corsa vxr 'stage 3' by RS tuning which was a handful but I loved it



Now onto my focus, which is something I've wanted since I first saw one so I'm over the moon the own one

Jeez another one of the cars I never wish I had sold on the same page!

Great cars, UG is the colour, lovely after a detail especially in the sun.

Best car I ever owned hands down. Does the normal stuff really well and a proper weapon on the move, a real Jekyll and Hide! Pops and Bangs for fun.

Personally I'm a sucker for the standard silver wheels but they are a real bugger to keep clean. Had mine at stage 1 350 hp and it transformed the car and seemed to compliment the diff better than the standard power did.

Took mine to Brands and again mightily impressed, a real joy to own.

Hope you enjoy yours.

I just love the colour. It suits the ridiculously out-there nature of the car. Great buy!

Absolutely not. The car is supposed to be nuts and the green is a real head turner. People worry about colour matching but life's too short for that.

I had one of those back in 2011. First thing I did when I got it was cut the exhaust off and just have straight pipes on it.
Cracks and bangs on gear changes and on the over run. Loved it.

Great car mate. I recognise locations you must be local(ish) I think you've just started following me on twitter too.

Fantastic! Is it a lux pack 2? Any plans? I will own a white one someday'! Crazy some are still for sale for £25k!

I got a UG back in February this year, exactly like yours. Mine had lux pack 2 and luckily the leather seat upgrades. Think I'd prefer the dab radio though as the sat nav is pretty awful.

I really wanted a white one, but as soon as I saw the green with black wheels in the flesh there was no contest. Car like this needs a lairy colour in my opinion.

Love it. Worth the money just for the noise. Drives like its on rails too.

UG is the best colour for these. It's a bonkers looking hot hatch so it's only right to have a bonkers colour to shout about!

Few plans for it, nothing too extreme (milltek, lowering springs and a remap) Its lux 1 with BT, looked at one with lux 2 and the leather seat upgrade but I'm pleased I got the 'normal' seats and DAB to be honest

Edit: Also I'm still waiting to get my plate on

I'm fairly young so I can get away with the colour or at least that's what I keep telling myself
