    Focus Cosworth ??

    I dunno how old this pic is but it was taken at the Nurburgring and is allegedly the Focus Cosworth undergoing testing.

      Rollox it is.

      Its the Focus RS, they have had problems with it overheating and this was probably testing a vent, which I have been told doesn't work.

          Didnt think it was, That bonnet looks familiar with the vents in. Was there some pics of a blue one with that bonnet?

              They have 20 blue ones and a black one, but this may have changed now.

                      My sources are pretty good, they both work for Ford, one of them is looking after the RS project.

                          I still puzzles me how Ford can't seem to fix the problems on the Focus RS. I just can't understand why. It all worked so nicely on the Escort Cossie. But perhaps they don't remember how they did it waaaaay back then ? Can't be all that difficult I imagine.

                          But still: Might be better that they take their time and do it right instead of the Audi aproach: Throw it to the public and install all sorts of fix-its after the customers have gotten their cars. Like the Audi TT: Rear spoiler, anti-everything and not to be forgotten: new rear suspension...
