There's one of these smashed up in my local Copart... I'm sure it was a green one too. I really do like them, just that little bit different from your average Zetec S/ST... The only thing is, I personally would want a lot more power from one! :lol:

Do you have any plans for it?

Thanks for all the positive comments guys :) I'll have to update with some decent quality pictures ones I've given it a good mop. I temp covered it for the weekend so I could drive
It home after buying it but I'm back to reality in
My 1.1 till the end of the month! :lol:

Plans for it at the mo are (all be it simple :lol:)

Give it a good clean
Leather gear and handbrake gaitors
New matts
Boot lock cover
Source a spare key - 3 button fob and blade
Tinted wind deflectors
Service

Long term plans might be something like

Cat back exhaust
rs diffuser style rear valance
Induction kit
Cossie wheels
Focus St3 leather front seats
Coilovers
ST rear disc conversion

Yeah I think the stickers pretty cool too :P

Uber jealous mate. What an upgrade from the Mk3. Good purchase, and plans sound good. :D

I've gotta get me one of these for the future. If you want it hard enough you'll achieve it lol

Very nice, always liked these and would have bought one if they'd produced a TDCi version and offered some options on it i.e. Heated Front Screen (I wouldn't buy a new Ford without one) I'm not a fan of the wheels though they are to dull compared to the standard ones. Can't see if the chequered roof is still on it, is it?

Whatever you do don't remove the limited edition plaque as you will not be able to get replacements and go for the correct mats for it which have chequered edging to them. It would be worth getting 2 sets as they will become highly sought after.

Thanks for the positive comments guys :)

The roof doesn't have the checker, it's been removed at some point. The last owner said it had a green roof when he bought it so he had it wrapped in black vynal. The plaque is still there and I won't touch it, I plan to leave it as near to standard as I can so I don't ruin it's resale value. It doesnt have the matts with the checker piping either. There is a set on eBay but they're £45 which is pretty steep for some mats. I can't see they would be worth anymore than that even when they become really rare. I Mabe wrong though?

The wheels do match the car better when it's a brighter day in fairness :bonkers:

Cheers :)
