What on earth is this fake Ford Focus ‘S’?

Featured Replies

Just came across this car valeting page and stumbled across this Focus. It appears to have a red S on the back with bits of red plastic aftermarket stuff hanging off everything. I’m 99.9% this is some fake stunt but can somebody confirm? What’s with the exhaust as it appears to have a legit looking ST exhaust stuck on there somehow? Anybody ever seen anything like this before?

It's a legit spec, the Zetec 'S' - basically it's a zetec with a body kit. The 'S' badge is normally on the front grill.

This particular one, if it is actually an 'S', looks like it's been given the full Ali Express treatment.

That’s the pre-facelift, I’m aware of the Zetec S but it isn’t styled that way 2015+. It’s got a rear bumper which this vehicle doesn’t have (this has the base bumper) and a spoiler but no twin exhaust. It’s an abomination. It doesn’t have the S on the grill there was a photo of that. I’m convinced it’s just an eco boost 1.0 that he’s glued a load of tat to.

Sorry, you're right the white one I'm my picture is the pre facelift. 

Was the zetec S replaced by the ST Line on the facelift?

I agree with you about it being an absolute abomination, and it probably is an ecoboost in 'disguise'. A very very poor disguise

It’s not the first time we’ve seen that interior on this forum! Definitely a DIY job 

Auto to😂

The interior looks like something out of pimp my ride 😂

It's a Titanium - means you get all the toys but none of the looks...  Each to their own but I prefer them to the Zetec S/ST-Line where you get looks but have to keep manually adjusting speed and temperature as if it's still 1982! :laugh:  You could also get the sporty looking Zetec S/ST-Line with a 1.0 EcoBoost btw lol.

I don't think it looks too horrific personally...  The mudflaps are ridiculous, but the interior hasn't been overdone...did you see the  entire red dash insert on the Mk7 Fiesta on here recently? :laugh:

It looks like a 17 year old boy has access to his Granddad's mobility car and has spent £50 on eBay on it,
'S' badge is on upside down (and on the White Fiesta too), that's what really bothers me lol.

I thought something looked off with the S! :laugh:  

You've made a decent point there though...  I like modified cars, but only when people have thrown a tonne of money on them, mods on a budget rarely works! :unsure:
