2003 Ford Focus RS

SOLD!
SOLD

Brief

We are very proud to offer this Mk1 Ford Focus RS for sale, for the second time.
We know the other Mk1 Focus RS’s on the market and this is without doubt, the best on the market and the best we have seen.

Originally purchased by ourselves from the original owner in 2015.
The original owner kept the car in a heated garage, and it never saw rain!
The second owner has kept the car as part of a large collection in a dehumidified showroom – this means the car has never been kept in damp conditions and as such – is beautiful both on top and underneath.

The terms ‘Showroom’ or ‘Timewarp’ are certainly overused – however this car is without doubt worthy of both!

* An incredible 3,681miles from new!
* Only one former owner – whom we purchased the car from in 2015.
* All original paperwork is present within the history file.
* Original RS mats still in the bag – never fitted
* Ford Service History
* Unmarked interior
* Showroom condition throughout

History

Originally Purchased from W.R.Tullock on the 1st of September 2003.
The original purchase receipt is present, along with receipts for each service carried out, all of which have been carried out at the supplying Ford dealer.
Of course the original booklets are present, in the correct RS wallet.

Lots of MOT’s are with the vehicle, along with a Sorn declaration form for each year.
The unused spare key is also present, still with original tag in place.

We are very familiar with Mk1 Focus RS’s, having had various show winning examples, and Concours examples, and having detailed various examples for customers.
This is a true beauty of an example.

Body & Paintwork

As you would expect, the Imperial Blue paintwork is 100% original, and is in simply superb order.
All the panels are original, and unmarked – no dents or imperfections whatsoever!

The underside has zero corrosion, it still looks factory fresh and is quite incredible to see.

All trims are in perfect condition, the badges, and lights are all unmarked.
All rubbers are as new, with no perishing of the door rubbers, aerial base etc…

An absolute stunner.

Interior & Trim

This is an area that a lot of MK1 Focus RS’s suffer.

This example is quite literally faultless inside!

The seats are simply superb, with no signs of any wear at all, and the rear seats have never been sat in.
The seats even still have the factory barcode stickers in place!

All carpets are without any marks, and the original RS floor mats are still in the bag in the boot, they have never been fitted or used!

The Sill Covers still even have the protection film in place!

Dashboard is unmarked, and original stereo is still in place, along with original gearknob and steering wheel, all of which are in new condition.
Everything works as it should do, and the overall appearance is still fantastic.

Engine

This engine has barely been ‘ran in’ with such low mileage.
Whisper quiet from cold, with no tapping from cold which is common on these engine.

The car has clearly been cherished and loved, not only when it comes to appearance, but also when it comes to keeping the car healthy.

The car has been regularly serviced (stamps within the service book & receipts to prove).

No smoking, either on start up, idle, when on boost, or on overrun.
The car pulls strongly through the entire rev range, with no hesitation at all.

Driving this car is an absolute pleasure, the gearbox is nice and tight, the clutch is fantastic and performance is very good indeed.

Running Gear

All running gear is in fantastic order throughout – it must be seen to be appreciated.

Brakes are superb standard items, and have no judder at all.
All suspension is without fault, and still in original paint with no corrosion.

The wheels are in unmarked original condition, with original tyres still fitted.
We know the other Mk1 Focus RS’s currently on the market, and this is the best.
