    Postby Pugguy » Tue May 29, 2012 9:37 pm

    Ford Focus RS 2003 (Nov) (Limited edition no:2453 )
    Just 40,000 miles
    Stunning car & immaculate condition.
    6 Disc CD player.
    Blue Leather & Alacantra interior.
    18" Alloys with A1 Tires!.
    Full service history with all original booklets & both original keys.
    Cam belts changed (as a precaution).
    Cheaper to run & insure than an impreza /evo & will retain its value.

    This car needs nothing - anything it has required has been done & it has been very well looked after.

    A very rare car ( not many on the IOM).

    Must go as we need a 4-door (3 kids!) first to see will buy.
    (do not view unless you have funds to buy- NO timewasters!) VERY reluctant sale.

    £7750 ono Tel: 450118

    This is a superb car. Probably the finest drivers car I've ever owned. Dare I say, a much finer vehicle than even my BMW E46 M3.

    I would be keeping it were it not for the need of the four doors that the Evo provides.

    It is one of the very last examples produced and one of the lowest mileage examples in the UK.

    It drives absolutely perfectly and is extremely quick. Its braking and cornering abilities are fantastic. No one will be disappointed with this car!

    I'd be very surprised if the first potentially serious buyer (with available funds!) test driving this car doesn't purchase. It really is that good......

    Its such a shame we need 4 doors- It really is my ideal car, fast-fun & yet very economical when driven nicley to work (not as heavy as most performance cars etc)..

    Anyone who knows Jamie will know this car has been impecably looked after.. (ps get some pics of the new evo posted!)

    I'll post some pics up when the Evo is in my good books and the clutch has been changed.

    I can't believe I didn't pick up on the slipping clutch on the test drive! I hope there'll be no delay with Brent. That said, when a new clutch is installed it has to be run in for a few hundred miles........so it looks like it'll be a while before I get the full FQ experience. For FQ sake!!

    It certainly is you dirty guitar genius! It was only a couple of weeks ago Lyndo told me Mr Darkflare was you!

    I always knew you liked Evos, but I didn't think you'd end up with one so soon! And yes, when mine is performing as it should we'll have to meet up.

    I hope you're right...........just what I've read. I do tend to treat my vehicles with alot of mechanical sympathy.

    Thats why the Focus RS is as tight as a drum!!!

    I asked if I should bed it in, and it was an IX clutch in a 400BHP evo :)

    Its a tricky job from all accounts too. I'd bet you paid a fair penny to have that done.
