    How much are they normally going for?

    To be honest, the dash doesn't look any better than whats in my 6 year old Focus!

    You can get some seriously nice cars for £30k. I just don't know why anyone would spend that on a Ford. :confused:

    they retail at around £25k i think. i would rather have the focus than an s3 or an r32 any day of the week.

    Not bad for a Focus with added plastic bits... :rolleyes: (they are only making eight thousand of them worldwide)

    Well I like the one in blue a lot more than the white one. But I've bought 2 brand new Ford's. Should have learnt after the first one. :rolleyes:

    Don't get me wrong, each to their own and all that. You just wouldn't catch me spending £30k on a Ford.

    But if anyone wants to let me have a go of theirs..........! :p

    yip,like anything else with an rs badge it will be a classic.just have a look at the last focus rs' on 03 plates, for a good one you will still be paying around 10k,maybe even more. you dont see many of them on the road these days, all kept locked away.

    I think that would be a no... :D:D:D

    The blue is not going to stand out as it is a fairly common colour, the green (totally unique to the RS) will bug your eyes out after a few weeks and look cheap (there are rumours of panels not matching as in the orange ST). The white, however, looks amazing with the black accessories. They are only doing those three colours.

    unfortunatly the panel thing is true in the green colour for some reason some of the panels dont match, i like the green though.:D
