I believe X 9 FMC is actually a FWD car marked up to look like a WRC.
On a different matter I saw the otherday in Motorsport News that the MacHales have ET 53 UNY and EJ 02 KMU up for sale. (05 and 03 spec respectively).

Stephen Moore is using EU55 CNF on the Sunseeker Rally this weekend. Assume this is the car he's now bought.
X9 FMC is indeed a FWD 'KitCar' and is not a WRC Car.
Y129 XEV has been sold to Andrew Barnes was sold back in 2007.
X493 YOO has been re-registered X15 MOB

On Italian rally forum is a roumor, that Munaretto bought one Focus spec.06 for driver Porro, according to this roumor Porro should drive Italian Tarmac Championship (TRA) in this season. Does anybody knows anything more about this? Car's history for excample...
And here is new car from Porro:

He has plans for the ERC, Euro Rally Challenge; Dutch Championship and I expect him at the entry list of at least one WRC rally, in Germany.
It looks like Stobart have give Galli the dreaded 1ES plate, and Matthew will have MW55 MAT.

Does anyone know who is the new owner of ET53 URO?
Is it not still being rented out by Ramsport for the time being. I think it was that car or maybe another Ramsport one that was in the For Sale section of Autosport last week. They were also offering rental deals for the car.
The fact Mikkelsen was on 0 car duty at the cars last rally on the Granite would make me think Ramsport still own and run the car.
eh??

I was just wondering if ET53 URO is sold because it is not for sale at M-sport website anymore while third Mikkelsen Focus EG53 CCN is still for sale.

It does say "Ramsport" on the door mirrors.

I'm pretty sure Weston has had his cars run by Ramsport for a few years now. Dating back to pre-Mikkelsen days when he was running the Escort WRC.
I suppose its just a matter of waiting to see if he keeps using it. But he has probably bought it and Ramsport are running it for him like they always have done.
I'd say thats pretty much spot on :)Quote:

Does any of you Focus experts know if it's Ramsport or Dom Buckley that will prepare/run the car for Gareth Jones in ADAC Rally Deutchland?
Mike,
Remember Gareth still has his own 05 spec Focus EG53 AVD so he could use that one or rent one of Ramsport cars. I think the norwegians still have atleast one 05 spec Focus.
I guess we have to wait for first photos of the machine before we can be sure.
Jouni Arolainen has swapped 02 to 05 with Ramsport and will drive NORF with 05. Ramsport has his 02 now.
More info www.jouniarolainen.com (story of 05 only in Finish at the moment)
