| The RS500 wasn't the only special edition I was searching through t'internet earlier and came across these special edition mk2 FRS built to commemorate Fords most famous and important racing victories, would you buy one in these colours?
(this is quite an old page, comes from July 2010 so they are probably already sold)
What are your thoughts on these then, have you seen them before? http://www.auto-car-shop.com/17326/f...rmation-video/

| Re: The RS500 wasn't the only special edition Ages old. They are all well sold out now, Ford said they would bring them to the UK if there was enough demand but that never happenned.
I'd not spend £30k on a Focus, let alone £40k.
Each one came with a watch tbh, woohoooooooooooooooo!

| Re: The RS500 wasn't the only special edition I thought as much, I quite liked the MkII GT40 version in black and the MkIV in red but the others look a bit gash, the Gulf one especially
I didn't know they were offered in this country but as you said I was a bit late to the party (only about 10 months, so not by too much  ) |

To conclude, Ford offered to offer them to the UK market much in the same way I will offer free cupcakes if there is enough demand.
I am not saying "Would you like a cupcake?" I am in fact saying "If enough of you want a cupcake I will make you one." But of course I have no intention of making you a cupcake...Ford b*ll.

| Re: The RS500 wasn't the only special edition but you're still offering to make cup cakes, whether any body wants them or not the offer is there and can be withdrawn at any time, which in the case of the FRS is what happened,
lets not get pedantic about the nature of the english language because if we do HDi and BBJ will be along in a minute to join in |
