Focus WRC Thread

Great news guys! I have it confirmed that the 1ES Matt Wilson has used in Wales last year and Monte, Sweden and Norway this year is former EU55 CNN.

Jaanus. Your information about Einar Staff is wrong. You say the crew drive with reg RJ 42247 In this picture I see another plate. http://www.team-itweb.no/images/arkiv/20070216/0071.jpg

Do you realy know Staff is driving EX02 OBB?

Thanks FocusChampion. The car on the photo is 2001 spec RZ 28256. Original reg-plate V2 FMC. Thanks for the info and sorry for the mistake. I had old info and had no time to deal with the website yesterday and find photos, I will correct it soon.

According to rallycarsforsale.net V2 FMC has been sold. Is the new owner Einar Staff who used it in Rally Norway or someone else? And will Einar continue driving the car in the Norwegian Rally Championship?

Also does anyone know which Focus is this 2001 spec that came for sale this week:

Might be a car from Ireland with the name Norman Burns?

If it's from Ireland it could be EJ02 KMO, because the last owner Hugh Martin Doherty now has a new car. Just speculating...

hmmm possibly! Shame there's no pictures, annoying when they advertise a WRC Car and they don't have any photos.

Quite a funny story, for a while I thought Bernhard Kongsrud was renting RJ42247 for Rally Norway, then a few weeks prior to the event Bernhard bought Trond Sveinsvolls V2 FMC without even seeing the car first.

This turned out to be a bit of a mistake, as Bernard is abt 2 meters tall and actually didnt fit inside the car! He also owns a ex Henning evo 6,5 wich he had lent to Einar Staff for Rally Norway. So their only option was to swap cars, giving Einar a ride in the 01 Focus that Bernhard now owns...

Moral: dont buy a car without a test drive.....

Thanks for the story Jr. :up:

I am sure they can adjust the seat for Bernhard and he can use the car in the future :)
