Okey Fellas, i know what u are thinking, this is a falcon website, but like it or not the focus is apart of the ford realm. So i thought i would chuck in a few pics of the one we have in our workshop, fresh off the boat. The picture quality is pretty shabby but its all that nokia had to offer.

I don't know any specs about her yet, we don't have a workshop manual yet. But i do know its a standard focus shell with some not so standard heavy modifications, The front brakes are huge, its a 5 cylinder not a 4, and there is a turbo stuffed somewhere in there, the exaust manifold is on the back of the motor, and i couldn't be f**k puttin it on a hoist.

I havn't driven one yet, but i started this one up and revved the balls of her a few times. Smooth and it sounds like a little angry motor car.

Anyways Pics added

In short looks like a great little car, i don't know how the front wheel drive turbo is going to effect how the car drives, but it seems to be perched on the front a fair bit anyway. I wouldn't be suprised to see some foxy little ladies driving this one round. Its like the fords lancer sorta thing, watch out for the fags though :S.

Aight well i'll keep you posted, there is a Turbo Territory coming in soon, i hope to post some pics of that aswell, hopefully better pic quality.
