It's wild to me that people treat this thing like a rare Ferrari Dino or something similar from the 60s because it's so damn rare. Ford just creates a limited edition car with off the shell parts, for the most part, just like that GR Yaris on the lift while sharing about 80% same parts as their entry level brethren. Doesn't make it any less special, mind you but it just strikes me as bit odd to have such a common car so highly coveted.
Easy mate defo not as rare as a Ferrari Dino lol but it's a special motor the average man or woman can afford the RS brand as always been like that . Ford actually had to rework the production line for the Mk2 for width of the dam thing 😊You could say its my Ferrari Dino but I much prefer my Focus RS ...Such a special thing 👍
@@MBEEMICK A lot less than yours😂 it's a bit of a mash up. Big mountune intercooler, airtec cia, powerflow exhaust with decat, dreamscience remap and obvs the one and only RS clutch to handle the torque. Not had it on a Dyno but I recon 300 give or take.
Collins performance are legendary back in the cossie days
andybrookes they've been modifying cars for over 50 years that's some achievement that 👏
@MBEEMICK it definitely is
Just had new brake pads and discs all round done on my green one for mot they definitely need good brakes these cars. 👌
Russellwade you most certainly do pal 👍

Took my cosworth there for a engine rebuild 25 years ago. Does sue collins still own Collins ?

How much is the road tax dude? My 07 plate fiesta st is currently £335 for the year, £335!
£415 for the year considering its not on road that much that is extortionate 😂
@MBEEMICK they are going to tax us off the road.
@richardburns1287 Mate that's nothing to what tax we pay on fuel keep the faith once a petrol head always a petrol head 😉 🤘

Just to add to that. Are you running an LSD? If I had 500hp I would not get to 60 any quicker 😂
@@bez750It's running the standard quaife diff coupled with the revo knuckle does quite a good job getting the power down in the dry 😂
