More photos are available from the seller upon request. The MK2-generation Ford Focus RS was introduced in concept form at the 2008 British International Motor Show, mating a brawny inline-five with a communicative front-wheel-drive chassis, and fitted with both a Quaife limited-slip differential and a revolutionary ‘RevoKnuckle’ suspension system to maximise traction through the front wheels. This very well-presented and unmodified, original condition Mk2 Focus RS is offered for sale having covered a particularly modest 12, 580 miles from new. Having been dry-stored whenever not in use, it would make a superb addition to a collection of fast Fords or an entertaining daily driver or weekend plaything for any marque enthusiast.
