The very first Focus RS500 has become an icon and the very first model, PR001, is set to join the company’s heritage collection. This means that the car will be shown at a variety of shows as well as at certain Ford dealers throughout the year. The PR001 is representative of a very small run – only 101 right hand drive cars were available in the UK.
Ford corporate affairs manager, Brian Bennett, said: “The heritage collection is the largest collection of roadworthy historic Ford vehicles in the UK and includes some of the industry’s most famous vehicles such as the Ford Model T and the Ford Cortina. Performance models feature strongly and the Ford Focus RS500 was an obvious choice to include as a future classic.”
