Body & Paintwork

Anybody who knows the Focus RS 500 will immediately think of the somewhat iconic ‘Matt Black’ 3M wrap finish.

Quite commonly removed and either replaced with a different Matt vinyl which is more hardwearing, or removed in favour of revealing the Panther Black paintwork underneath.
Either way, this has made examples with original foil wraps rarer and rarer.

It is also common knowledge that some of the cars had defects when new, as is the nature with a wrap, especially as these were done using what some might call, ‘early technology’.
We have had a number of very low mileage Focus RS500’s & they have all had original imperfections.

The original tyres are still fitted and it is clear to see this car had not had hard use.

The Red calipers still look great, and finish the overall appearance off perfectly.

Interior & Trim

Quite simply stunning!!

The black with red stitching is the perfect interior for the Focus RS500, Ford really got it right with these.

As you would expect, the interior is simply unmarked, the sill plates even still have the protective film in place.
Everything works just as it should do of course.

The steering wheel, gear knob, pedals, floor mats, all of them are in perfect condition, as of course, are the gorgeous Dynamica Recaro seats.

Engine

What an engine!

The car bursts in to life, and runs beautifully.
With only 5,448 miles from new, and 9 services, of course everything is in perfect running order.

The engine bay itself presents exactly as you would expect, and is without any modifications.

Released with 345bhp, the Focus RS500 is still very much a force to be reckoned with, and is already regarded as a modern classic Ford RS with prices climbing very well over the last few years.

Running Gear

The underside is a common issue with the Ford Focus’s, so even low mileage examples can be showing signs of age, but not so with this example!

The underside of this particular car is in excellent original condition, having only been used in dry weather & when not being used, it has been stored in a carcoon (air bubble).
