Few modern hot hatches have generated the level of acclaim reserved for the third generation Ford Focus RS. Launched in 2016, the model marked the return of the RS badge to Ford’s global line up, combining aggressive styling with advanced four wheel drive technology and formidable turbocharged performance. Widely praised for its chassis balance and driver engagement, the Focus RS quickly established itself as one of the most exciting performance hatchbacks of its era.
This 2017 example is finished in metallic grey and presents as a highly appealing, low mileage car. The vendor informs us that it has covered approximately 24,000 miles from new and is offered with an MOT valid until May 2026. Importantly, the vehicle has had just one keeper from new.
Supplied new by Ford Motor Company Poole, Dorset on 31 May 2017, the car is complete with its full book pack, including the original service booklet. The service record displays eight stamps, all carried out by Ford main dealers, with the most recent service recorded in May 2025 at 23,229 miles. Such comprehensive main dealer history further enhances the car’s appeal and provides reassurance as to its maintenance.
Externally, the Focus RS is instantly recognisable by its aggressive front bumper, large rear spoiler and flared arches. Black multi spoke alloy wheels sit over striking blue brake calipers, reinforcing the model’s purposeful character. The overall presentation appears commensurate with the indicated mileage and careful ownership.
Inside, the cabin reflects the RS’s driver focused ethos, featuring supportive sports seats, a multifunction steering wheel and performance orientated instrumentation. The combination of everyday practicality and genuine performance capability remains a defining strength of the model.
Power is delivered by a turbocharged engine driving all four wheels through Ford’s advanced all wheel drive system, enabling impressive traction and sharp handling. The Focus RS was widely acclaimed for its ability to combine everyday usability with track capable performance, cementing its status as a modern performance icon.
Offered without reserve, this one keeper, low mileage example with full main dealer service history represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a highly regarded modern Ford performance model.
