Description
Browns of Richmond are delighted to offer this very impressive Ford Focus RS for sale. An instant hit with buyers when it was first introduced, this 3rd-generation car, better known as the C346 certainly looks the part. Whether it be the twin exit tailpipes, huge rear wing or huge air intakes, there is absolutely no mistaking the performance credentials of this car. Finished in the slightly rarer Phantom Black and complimented by a set of satin black 19-inch original RS alloys we think it look superb. The unique touches, both inside and out make the car feel that bit more exclusive, like the blue RS emblem in the rear spoiler, steering wheel and intricately crafted blue stitching throughout.
Made even more desirable by the fact it?s been kept completely original as it was from the factory, both cosmetically and mechanically. With 350 PS on tap, we see no reason why anyone would need to tinker under the bonnet, this is a car thatll do 0-60 in 4.7 seconds, surely thats fast enough! Plus this cars got the optional Luxury Pack, Brembo brake calipers painted in blue and door edge protectors.
In typical Ford RS fashion, the focus is very much on the driving experience, the Mk3 saw notable improvements over its predecessor, primarily in drivetrain and power delivery. The Mk3 introduced an advanced all-wheel-drive system with dynamic torque vectoring, a major upgrade from the MKk2s front wheel drive.
The 2.3 EcoBoost engine produces 350 bhp vs the Mk2s 301 bhp, if you dialled the clock back 15 years theres no way anyone would have believed you could squeeze so much power out of a 2.3 engine and have it also capable of delivering 35 mpg +. Its understandable why these RS?s hold their money so well and have such a cult following of avid enthusiasts
At Browns we love a car thats been well maintained and that was precisely the reason we selected this one for sale. We?ve got detailed records of the service history, consisting of 9 Ford services, that makes for a complete and full Ford service history, adding further to this cars desirability. Not to be compared with many out there that have partial or independent services, this isa perfect service history, so crucial on a performance car. Weve also completed an RAC inspection to ensure the car has a complete and clean bill of health but its plain to see this car has had some of the very best care and attention and we think that speaks volumes about the kind of person that perhaps owned this car previously.
