That’s a stupid price for a focus rs, I think I would rather have my far cheaper/much more power Evo 6

The “Heritage “ was revealed a cpl months ago
it’s the same colour as the 70’s MK2 , as it’s the last RS it will appreciate in value , I thought the list price was circa £50K
???

The Ford Focus RS Heritage Edition celebrates the end of the Mk3 Focus RS as well as Ford RS’s presence in the UK. Only 50 examples of the runout model will be produced, each costing an eye-watering £39,895.

Saw this a few days ago, absolute joke.
Having owned this model of the RS (not this runout nonsense) with the Mountune pack on it I was massively disappointed; shortest time I'd owned a car and got rid in just 6 months, there's much better out there for the money and the mpg is just as bad as an Impreza, so save your money and get more smiles per miles

List price new doesn’t really come into it. Very few actually went to private buyers by the looks of it and a few went to select people (z list celebs) and some the dealers themselves.

nothing really special about the car, limited numbers and colour all that really sets it apart.

thing is the Impreza not exactly cheap anymore either

oh I own both an Impreza (my 4th) and a mk3 rs so not really biased either way but I’d have an Impreza over the Focus any day.

Who in their right mind (apart from a collector) is going to spend £140K on a 20 year old Japanese car.

A Yellow RA-R and JDM 22b are quite special in comparison to a Heritage Edition Focus RS.

£140k special though? I’m not saying they are not special cars but think some prices are a bit on the crazy side the last few years.
