Interesting to see the new 08 Focus has broken with tradition and has a Cumbrian number plate instead of an Essex one.
How come Duvals car started the event with a Belgian number plate and finished with a English plate?
All the pictures I've seen, from shakedown to the final stage, have the car with registration EO 56 TZR.
Ken Block has a few blast's around in a 07 Focus the other day, with a view to buy.
Whats crack with Hirvonens reg plate on this weekends Catalunia event, two different plates on different days?????
Yes I just noticed it right now. Even I was fooled in thinking that Ford had brought a new car here for Mikko EU08 AXC. I have a large photo taken in shakedown and it clearly shows this reg-plate. Now when I have taken a look at some other photos they show the old reg-plate PX08 AXC that Mikko used in Germany.
I think they just put the wrong sticker on the car for shakedown and that's it.
Yeah I can see how easy a mistake it is to make, as most of the other cars do start with EU, but what a balls up for a professional outfit, that should'nt be happening...no way.
There are some changes in my Focushistory website:
1 The new correct address is http://web.zone.ee/focushistory/ but the old link still works http://www.zone.ee/focushistory/
2 For some time now the website is completely add free and it will stay that way for a long time.
3 There is a new page called the News where you can find all kinds of different news that contain info about Ford Focus world rally cars http://web.zone.ee/focushistory/news.html
Street version?

Michael O'Brien now owns R55 0TH
Apparently Steve Perez owns EU07 SUF. We won't find out until next year though.
Great effort by M-Sport to rebuild Duval's Japan car (EU07 SUV) in time for Rally GB. If indeed they did fix it. I sometimes wonder about the plates on these cars.
I doubt Perez would have bought another Focus as he seems to be quite content (and loves) his existing 2 Focus WRC cars. Could be wrong. Will keep you posted.
It says in our local paper (penrith) that Paul Bird will be doing the 2009 gravel championship in a latest spec Focus WRC, has he bought one?
I heard rumours that van Merksteijn sold his Focus 06 to Hungary. Anyone knows something about that?
I hope it's true, i would love to see it in action! :)Quote:

Hope it gets a good driver
Is Ford gonna have a new livery for 2009 or are they gonna carry on with that horrible mess from 2008?
Look at this for the 06 Fucus in Hungary rumors

"Upon request we can rent out a 06 or 07 car as well."
Sorry if it has been posted before but has anyone noticed the way Ford has painted the bonnet and wing to make it look as if it is the facelift model

I think that is unfortunately not true as this car is for sale @ m-sport: http://www.m-sport.co.uk/cars4sale/59Quote:
