SUMMARY
A superb Mk3 in vibrant Nitrous Blue with just 3,671 miles from new.
DESCRIPTION
Renowned as the final iteration of the traditional Fast Fords, this Mk3 Focus RS Edition was developed by Ford Performance engineers and evaluated at locations across the globe to further enhance the high performance hatchback’s class-leading traction and responsiveness using a Quaife LSD for the front axle. The mechanical LSD limited the engine torque delivered to the wheels that had reduced traction on the road surface and redistributed torque to the wheels with more traction to counteract the wheelspin that can hamper acceleration and stability.
By controlling the torque delivered to each front wheel, the Focus RS Edition’s Quaife LSD enabled drivers to exploit the 350PS delivered by its 2.3-litre EcoBoost engine in high-performance driving situations even more. The Edition also delivered drive modes that included the industry first drift mode for controlled oversteer drifts under circuit conditions and launch control for ultimate performance off the start-line – accelerating from 0-62mph in just 4.7 seconds.
On offer here is a UK-supplied, right-hand drive example that was first registered on 7th July 2017 and is finished in a vibrant shade of Nitrous Blue. The 'Lux pack' includes power mirrors, Keyfree system, cruise-control, rear parking sensors, privacy glass and 19” black forged alloy wheels. Optioned with ‘Sync 3 & Sat Nav’, Sony premium speakers and sub-woofer and more, all detailed in the car's history file which can be viewed at our Documents Desk.
The V5C is showing one former keeper and the odometer at the time of cataloguing was showing just 3,671 miles from new. Accompanied by the Ford Performance Bookpack and some invoices showing a service with Arnold Clark in Newcastle, this example presents as you would expect for what is essentially 'running-in' mileage.
Coming to auction with a current MOT, this is a competitively priced RS Mk3 in very good condition that will reward a closer inspection.
