This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Iconic Sale at the NEC Classic Motor Show 2025 on Saturday the 8th of November, NEC, Birmingham, B40 1NT. Ford has been a major force in motorsport ever since the iconic GT40 shook the racing world in the 1960s, with success spanning the BTCC, endurance racing, and the World Rally Championship. Its racing pedigree has translated into road cars that combine usability with performance, from the Sierra RS Cosworth and Escort Cosworth to the Focus RS of today. The first-generation Focus RS proved divisive, its front-wheel-drive torque-steer and firm ride polarising drivers, yet over time it has become a modern classic celebrated for raw, driver-focused character. Building on that legacy, the Mk2 Focus RS launched in 2009 as a 300bhp, turbocharged five-cylinder super-hatch. Its 2.5-litre engine produced 324lb/ft of torque, propelling the car to 60mph in under six seconds, with a top speed exceeding 160mph. Despite remaining front-wheel drive, Ford’s Revo-Knuckle suspension, Quaife limited-slip differential, wider track, stiffer chassis, and faster steering rack combined to tame the torque-steer and deliver an engaging, responsive drive. Aggressive styling, including the twin-blade rear spoiler, deep diffuser, flared arches, and 19-inch wheels, makde its intentions clear. This example is finished in Frozen White with a Recaro interior, factory 19-inch alloy wheels, and signature RS detailing throughout. Supplied new by SMC Ford Sittingbourne, Kent, on 29th September 2010, it has covered just 2,436 miles from new, supported by an impeccable service record with 15 service stamps, the most recent carried out on 10th October 2025 at 2,428 miles. The car has formed part of a private collection with our vendor for the past five years, reflecting careful use and long-term preservation.   Accompanying the car is a comprehensive history file, including the original Vehicle Order Form, invoices, documentation, and even a selection of original hoses retained from its time as a show car. It has had just two former registered keepers and is currently without MOT, having remained as part of a collection since 2020.   This Focus RS is a superb example of one of Ford’s finest modern performance hatchbacks. Low mileage, long-term ownership, UK-supplied, and one of the most desirable modern fast Fords in existence.
