The new 300bhp Ford Focus RS is off to a good start with over 1000 orders placed in UK showrooms alone.

2009 Ford Focus RS

The car hasn’t even been officially unveiled yet, but it’s due to appear at the Paris Motor Show where more details will be made available.

Until then the only known colours are Electric Green, Electric Blue and Frozen White but the potential buyers are happy to choose from those three colours alone. It’s not know what options are available but the RS is expected to be generously kitted out as standard. Expect decent sports seats, climate control and a top-notch multimedia stereo system.
