The Ford Focus RS Mk. I, produced between 2002 and 2003, is a high-performance version of the popular Focus hatchback. It marked Ford's return to the hot hatch segment, showcasing a distinctive blend of practicality and exhilarating driving dynamics. Powered by a turbocharged 2.0-litre inline-four engine, it delivered an impressive 212bhp, enabling it to sprint from 0 to 60 mph in just over six seconds. The Mk. I RS featured sport suspension, wider track, and aggressive styling, including a prominent rear spoiler and unique front bumper. Limited to just 4,500 units, the Focus RS Mk. I has gained a cult following, celebrated for its raw driving experience and distinctive character. Today, it stands as a classic example of early 2000s performance hatchbacks, embodying Ford's motorsport heritage and engineering excellence.

The example we have here is beautifully presented throughout, commensurate with its low mileage of just under 53,000. The paintwork gleams and the interior shows little sign of wear and quite rarely for one of these, the car is completely unmodified with no lairy bodykits or loud exhausts in evidence here! The history file contains many invoices from years gone by and the service book shows 11 stamps, with the most recent being from June 2024. Fast Ford's are always popular and the Mk. I Focus RS has been rapidly gaining popularity in recent years. They are often regarded as one of the best handling front wheel drive cars ever made and an unmodified example like this one is becoming more and more desirable with age. Supplied to auction with a V5C registration document and an MoT test certificate valid until Jun 2025. Consigned by Fraser Smith
