A green RS focus in Essex... I hope that's not going to be more wasted flight money mate.

Probably a lucky escape. Fords in Essex would be like German derv saloons in Mid Ulster.

I know of a white Lux pack with under 10k miles if I can remember. this chap is a puke when it comes to cars - heated garage, never out in wet, won’t even let the kids take bikes out of garage if he’s not at home. The car is impeccable.
He probably won’t sell but then again he did say he never gets using it last day I was chatting to him. Won’t be cheap

No worries bud
Did you give him a deposit to keep the car for you? You really have to be on the ball when buying in England ie booking your flight within a day or two.

It’s the x top gear car. I sent Ian the link last week and he did a bit of digging.

Mark kindly messages me about this last Friday, the wife and I were ready to go straight away.
Unfortunately again 30 minutes on the internet digging about scratched them plans.
No doubt someone will be happy with it but not for me personally

Scary how quick you can get information online now . Seems it was the first rs delivered to uk and was a press car

Why does it matter? Just curious, I would buy a car on its condition before it's history so just curious to hear other peoples view points on how/why they buy a car.
For me if it's proving too hard for someone to find a certain car they usually aren't being realistic on price VS expectation. Nothing personal, just curious.

Hands up honestly starting to think you may be right, no matter what they all seem to have history so I'm maybe safer judging on condition now etc. it's just hard for me personally to try and get it outa my head

The fact that it was a press car could mean it was better looked after than most, no manufacturer wants a review on a shoddy car, wouldn’t stop me in a the slightest if it was in the right condition, in fact it may be more attractive to some as it was in mags etc, I’d want to collect every review to sell with it when the time came.
