This vibrant 2007 Ford Focus ST, resplendent in iconic Electric Orange, is described by the vendor as a “stunning example”. An original three-door example of the Mk2 Ford Focus ST, it uses a 2.5-litre five-cylinder turbo engine, which produces 225hp. This powerplant is now a legendary engine and is sure to become as desirable amongst collectors as the 1970s Ford BDA and 1980s Ford Cosworth 2.0-litre turbo. Even the registration, ‘Y5FST’ references this engine, adding to the desirability of this car. The engine is paired with a precise six-speed manual gearbox. Being a Ford Focus ST2 model, this car also features standard Xenon headlights, CD autochanger and a Quickclear heated windscreen.
‘Y5FST’ has been enthusiast-owned, with the vendor firmly saying they are not a boy racer. It has been really well looked after, with condition described as ‘excellent’ throughout – including engine, transmission, electrics, bodywork and interior. The odometer reads just 66,000 miles. The vendor has enhanced it with some well-judged upgrades including a K&N induction kit to make that five-cylinder engine breathe (and sound) even better. The engine has been remapped to take advantage of this. It has been lowered on Eibach springs, and fitted with uprated White Line anti-roll bars. The vendor adds there are four brand-new Pirelli P Zero premium tyres.
The Ford Focus ST was the spiritual successor to the famous Ford Escort XR3i. The first iteration, the ST170, was introduced in 2002. It had a 170hp 2.0-litre engine and subtly enhanced styling. It was the Mk2 Focus ST that really set the world alight, though. This time, it had a warbling 2.5-litre turbo five-cylinder engine, producing a warbling 225hp, for 0-62mph in just 6.4 seconds. An icon was born, and the five-cylinder Ford Focus ST’s cult following amongst enthusiasts continues to grow today.
· “Stunning” 2007 Ford Focus ST
