SUMMARY
Ultra-low mileage and single ownership with essentially every option ticked, surely one of the finest Mk3 Focus RS’ currently on the market.
DESCRIPTION
Hailed as the final hurrah of the traditional Fast Fords, the Mk3 RS was developed by Ford Performance who took an already impressive car and made it even more capable. This example features a factory Quaife mechanical limited-slip differential on the front axle, which allows the 2.3-litre EcoBoost’s 350bhp to be deployed more effectively by reducing inside wheelspin and maximising traction. 0–62mph is dispatched in just 4.7 seconds thanks to the AWD system with Dynamic Torque Vectoring and a lovely 6-speed manual box. Selectable Drive Modes include Launch Control and the now-infamous Drift Mode, an industry first that offered controlled oversteer in circuit conditions, with the Performance Shift Indicator assisting faster gear changes.
Supplied new in the UK and first registered on 31/03/2017, this fabulous example is offered to market from its one and only owner having covered just 1,311 miles from new. It's resplendent in Shadow Black, a premium RS-specific paint option, and sits on 19” black forged alloy wheels with RS centre caps and blue Brembo brake calipers. The interior features the standard Recaro seats in partial leather with blue contrast stitching, all in exceptional condition.
Additionally, this car has all the right options ticked:
- Lux Pack – power-folding mirrors with puddle lights, KeyFree entry and start, cruise control, rear parking sensors and privacy glass
- Winter Pack – heated front seats, heated steering wheel, Quickclear heated windscreen
- Sync 3 with Sat Nav
- Sony 'Premium' sound system with sub-woofer
- Factory door-edge protectors
The RS has been serviced every year by Vospers Ford in Exeter, regardless of mileage, with the most recent visit in May 2025 in preparation for sale. The official head gasket recall was also carried out by Vospers in May 2018, all stamped in the original Service Portfolio.
It's supplied with the original book pack, fully stamped service history, Ford 'First Aid' kit, puncture repair kit, and the current MOT is valid until May 2026. A properly looked-after, low-mileage, fully optioned, one-owner RS, a remarkable opportunity.
