Nice Shane. I've always liked these cars. Looks great.
You may remember Kurt from Liberty.asn going from a Gen4 to a focus almost exactly the same as yours.
Before you go out on a cruise with the guys on the focus forums ask Kurt what he thinks of their cruises. From memory Alex remembers this story as well.
Enjoy the car mate, she'll serve you well.

Thats what its badged in Europe. We only call it the XR5 in Aus because we're familiar with the XR family here.

Smart buy. Was looking at the Zetec Focus and an XR4 earlier this year, but couldn't take the size limitation, definitely one of those cars that makes you think of the Sierra. I hear there's good Cosworth parts out for these engines aswell. Black on white is nice, carbon wrap will look ace, can i ask why you're not just respraying roof black ala BMW M3.

So you can run it on 6psi with an rx fuel pump? :P

Kurt is based out at Richmond at the moment so not that far away.
He may have done a mod or two himself that may be worth checking out.

I sprayed my drink over the keyboard roaring in laughter about spraying the roof of a new car black to mimic an M3, like this car was a cheap boonger to begin with.

We've had brand new cars resprayed before, it's achieving the same thing, i'm just not the biggest fan of faux carbon fibre. Hope your keyboard is ok mate.

Well done Shane, I'm a big fan of the focus, they look awesome.. Is it running the 5 cylinder engine from Volvo? Buying plugs will be weird, buy 5 siix packs and get the 6th service free!

I know I'm going to get flamed, but I rate the sunkist orange colour they come out in.
