Forget the GTR and Mclaren, I could be quite jealous over this one!

I had a mk1 rs, was mental in its day ! Torque Steer was brutal. Modified to a sensible 285bhp, was my daily driver to work. Got lots of attention. Miss it.

I bought one in 2004, build number 1705 was 290/300bhp owned it for about 4yrs and was a fantastic reliable car, great memories. They share very few body panels to the mk1 focus.

Love the mk1 rs iv owned mine 9 years I will never sell it 😁

I have the svt here in North America ( highest trim for the mk1) and that thing with the 6 speed is unbelievably fun! Only 170hp, so for me the RS ( we never got ) is what I’ll always want.

This is the only focus I’d ever buy n modify, a classic.

Finally Ricky 💪🏽 I would of offered mine for a feature but it's sat there with a broken gearbox at the moment 😂. The pistons are forged, the conrods aren't but they are beefed up compared to a standard 2.0 zetec. Rest of the specs on the car were spot on 😁 Noticed a hesitation when on partial throttle, usually happens when the recirc valve spring is too stiff 👍🏽

Great looking car. Quite subtle for nowadays but was a beast when first released.

Forget the supercars !! These are the cars to have . They are the modern Cosworth and dare I say it the st170 will also start going up in price

I had a mk1 1.6 and an RS and you’re spot on, the driving position is awful! That being said they’re proper playful motors, bags of lift off over steer! Gear shift was the best I’ve come across too. Will defo be entering as massively regretting selling it.

I loved these from the first time I seen them. I also remember they were also somewhat affordable at one point. Now there worth more than a new RS for good ones. But I don't see anyone losing money on them.

2:50 - the torque steer of the focus RS is a lot less than you suggest. Because of the "revo-knuckle", the torque steer is reduced big time.

I agree. It hasn’t a bad angle. It’s been a grower. It did look ordinary ish so so in its day. Not ordinary ordinary but nothing mega. It doesn’t any more. It just looks the bomb

Barely past the shot of the rear end. This car’s sweet. I’ve had to edit my comment, because then I heard it. Proper ford turbo sound. Love it

My mk 1 RS focus build number 1429 bought it in 2003 270 bhp blue Finn remapped upgrade exhaust system loved the car

This is a one of original hot hatch,simple, practical, fast and clean look

I love my MK 1 Focus ! Don’t have to worry about torque steer on the 1.8, 115ps LX Estate 😉 Called Daisy ! Love the RS though

Would absolutely love one of these! Myum has a mk1 st170 and that's pretty fun

Ricky I’ve got my tickets, had them near on a month now. I’ve had Supersport fiesta’s from the 80’s, numerous XR2’s , XR3i’s, but never a RS. My name is Richard Stubbings so I deserve to at least win the car for my initials at least 🤣🤣👍🏻

One of my all time favourite cars 👍 something special about these motors.

I remember collecting these toy cars as a kid. Always loved this focus 😍

Mrs Kimberly is legit and her method works like magic I keep on earning every single week with her new strategy

Love mk1 focus's wish i still had mine the handling was mint it hugs the road

I loved mine 💯

Come on Ricky been wanting to see this in action 🎬 for a while m8. Cheers. Deeko 👍🏼 😎 Fae Glasgow 👌🏼😎

I bought the last one back in the day. Number 4501. Chris Harris drove it back when it was built from Germany back to the U.K. Since had many owners and a cat write off iirc 🙁

Properly sick I Love the old school focus don’t know what tires they are but the tread pattern is banging I had the fiesta of this era sadly not the st just the S had a nice turn of speed it was a nice little car but the RS focus Especially this one Tasty motor 👍😲

Focus RS MK1 was and is the only ford I have lusted after, why? Clean looks, stealth , simple. Love it

This exterior with the mk 3 4wd and the mk2 engine 🤌

Mk1 cant beat em! Solid all round... Sounds sik proper! 👌

Was one of these at place I got my golf for only 21k which I thought was cheap considering how old ford's rise in price. And Ricky got a stage 2 mk6 R if ya wanna have a rip. You ent had one of them on channel yet. Shout man

Future classic 🔥🔥

So glad you made this happen. Love the color, looks super clean, and the power looks super fun.

Mk1 rs has an understated mean-ness about it...

Looks like a fun drive

Focus vs type r??🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️

Just entered, massive fan of the MK1 focus, previously owned an st170 but could never afford one of these 🤞

Mine is stage 4 tuned,lowered suspension,custom hood and airtec intercooler ect

Absolute beauty of a car.

Looks like a lot of fun 🔥🔥

A guy I knew years ago bought one new and said it handled like a bag of 💩 and called it a widow maker/hedge cutter. Sold it

That was all ways my dream car wen they first came out

❤ the MK1 Focus RS.

Brilliant car I had focus 1.8tdci that was quick and brill to drive. I got mark 3 nice car to drive. But I think Mark 1 is better . I love to own rs focus

Even if it's a lambo off road my 1999 ford rs with a little rally set up 😜 still the best rally car for me and I'm looking for an evo 3 still hunting that car since 2017

Love the Mk1 rs focus

I had an st170 and the rs is the one I want to own next love the things you you do Ricky

Gorgeous cars n they sound so much better than modern cars 😊😉👍

I miss my old one so underrated car

Been waiting for this one ☝🏽

I got few tickets man. Fingers crossed this is my generation fun

That thing does sound madd bro, can tell its quick. Great content again bro!!

Had a mk1 st great little cars fun to drive!

Almost bought the Mk1 Focus RS in 2006 ok car but the torque steer was weird. Bought the Evo 6 just had more to offer.

my dream car

*It looked like it required a lot of concentration not to end up in heaven in this* 🤣

I wish we had that in US we had the SVT it had no performance just a looks package

The mk2 looks that more up2 date but still it's the foundation focus Rs 💯🔥😎👌

Would you say 2008 is old for a car as a daily? Looking into a Suzuki swift sport and sceptical that it might be a loss of money when it comes time to sell

Said he had to buy one to feature it on his channel lol they are rare for sure had mine for over 12 years and was about to make that call ricki until only a few weeks ago my cambelt guide wheel snapped 🥺time to get out a lot of spanners and money 💰

Defo getting a ticket for this one sounds nasty Ricky 💪🏽

screw the super cars - this RS is where its at...

Love the vids Ricky

nice they don't make them like that anymore

Love these cars 💪👍🚀

Little gem 💎

The best looking hot hatchback of all time.

Get yourself a cozzy Ricky 👍

So so nice and clean great video like always

Ricky are these competitions open to people in Republic of Ireland ?

Hey be careful with my car dude!

Still looking for a MK1 RS engine have the 4gearbox automatic

The bonnet entry is the only letdown

All the HP and FWD.. 👀

Looks brilliant

Very special car. Nothing Ford have made since comes close.

Easily one of his best cars

I've always loved there I've already bought a ticket

Wt it feel like compared to the type r

Channel poppin Ricky. We need a BMW Ricky, the channel misses content from a Beemer..

Sounds awesome

Stunning car.😁😁

intro tune bangss

I got to be honest, I not sure I'll buy any more tickets for other games if this gets drawn tomorrow now, only cause the way the odds have been pushed via email. Convinced me to buy more tickets for that reason alone

Colin McRae would of put it through its paces

I appreciate that you're trying to look "cool" but if it was my car you were driving I'd really appreciate you keeping both hands on the steering wheel.

The mk1 looks a show though never like the look of that car nice video though

Eveyone loves a Mk1 focus RS

Seems a bit of a waist of power, to much power for the front wheels.

Oh please let me win this cared for car..... Fml. Anyone worth there salt wants a car thats been looked after.

Can y’all give us whp instead of bhp.

This guy totally sounds like he don't know how to shift in the SVT focus is a lot better Atta turbo and it's 10 times what that car would be with my 03 SVT Focus full bolt on was pushing 260 horsepower to the wheels this got a crappy zetec motor with a turbo
