Re: Dagenham specials
I think the RS looks pretty fugly tbh, but the police around here have a few of them battenburg'd up and I've got to say, they look super smart in the yellow/blue with all the lights and antennae and stuff.

You ought to see the EVO X's in police livery in South Yorkshire. They scream "don't mess, we'll catch you" Alledgedy they are mapped too!

id still have the RS even if it was slower.  if you get one in blue they are slightly more discreet and look ace with the full leather interior

Sure are, as the UK allocation has all been sold, I think only 107 RS500 Focus's or Foci.. :signLOL: were coming to the UK.

But they are having problems with the 3M vinyl wrap on them too.  :rolleye:

In places the vinyl has bubbled or lifted off the car, it's mainly poor application nothing too major but Ford and 3M have acknowlleged they do have a problem and any owners cars that are affected will be sorted out FOC. :happy2:

i had a bit of a hand in that one in one way or another.

I did have one due to come in for a wax but another detailer has gotten it who has never touched a matt car before. He phoned me and asked how to do it too! :(
