Hi everyone

I have owned my Mk1 Focus RS for around 10 years now.
Bought it when I was 18, went from a 1.2 Corsa to my RS and still got it.

In my ownership time it's had the sills replaced, arches sorted, rust removed rear subframe and arms all sorted and new steering wheel. The main job last year which I did my self was fitting a new clutch, not the best Idea doing it on the floor on your back but I am in the trade, so I get lots of tips and help from my job working as a parts man selling genuine Ford parts.

I have also, last weekend just bled the brakes on it and I used the Sealey vs820 auto bleed kit which I would highly recommend.

I live in Chesterfield, Derbyshire area.

I have mainly joined this group as I wanting to finally start showing the car at all the major shows this year, as I have grown up it's not more of the modified boy racer late night car meets. haha

Thanks for reading
Oliver

Welcome mate, Could be useful knowing you work at Ford ;)

[DommyC]

bolts haha!
I've sorted them all now.
Could do with new bumpstops on the rear?

[rs03oll]

So if it's the bump stop on the rear shocker
Part number 1150350
No longer available
Euro don't sell them
I've done a quick search and auto doc do some that cross reference to that part number but check them out before buying
