    Official Spec – Focus RS 50 Evocation (Cut and paste taken from Kenny’s news page).

    1 of 3 examples, 1 Nitrous Blue to be used as UK Press vehicle and 2 Frozen White to be sold at specialist auction.
    Performance & Styling enhancements include:

    M400 UPGRADE
    FPM375 hardware – Alloy intercooler, High-flow charge-pipe, 200 cell catalyst / 3 downpipe & 3″ cat-back exhaust.

    Additionally:
    Forged pistons
    Steel rods
    ARP studs
    Balance shaft delete
    Baffled sump
    Short shift arm (20% shorter throw)
    DCC adjustable coilovers
    Rear spoiler extension (A-la Sierra RS500) – Carbon fibre design completed
    Lightweight 2-piece front bell/discs assembly
    Braided brake lines
    Fast road pads (Front & Rear)
    PTU brace
    Roll restrictor
    OZ Legra HLT. (Photos show the car fitted with Fifteen52 split rims)
    McGuard locking nuts

    Does this mean, as its all Ford/Mountune fitted to a Ford Focus Mk3, which is to be sold via Ford. Will all the items then be Warranty Approved?

    Great question and a big can of worms opened if it is!

    Lets hope so….

    Not sure why they reference the RS500 sierra when it comes to the spoiler, its just a shitty wing extension from mountune not a properly adapted spoiler for the car.

     

    This car was also meant to be the Evolution model but Ford have decided to change the name, probably because it is a massive let down!

     

    They are making only 3 of this special edition so it could have been something extremely special (like put up on kids walls special) and they have basically taken a edition model and 2 white ones and put them through the mountune parts department.

     

    Ford really need to go and take a walk around their heritage centre and realise what a special limited numbers run car should be like! i.e. bat shit mental fire breathing specials that kids dream of owning!

    • The fact its taken a while to realise this special edition might be because they were waiting for parts availability! ??

    Is wandering the same as veering.

    I guess veering is like wandering but a bit more vigorously!

    wonder where they got the stripes…



    No nothing.

    No Mods. No rockers. Just a chunky knob, thats now been replaced by an RS knob innit.

    No tackiness.

    Std as Ford intended, but with a space saver wheel and jack and nuts and wheel brace. oh.. and flaps, a man has got to have flaps.

    Innit?
