Have wanted to have a built example for my WRC collection for quite some time, was tempted to start my NIB kit when this box art build came up for sale recently on ebay. Was quite expensive but I think it is worth it as both body set & interior are painted to a high standard, plus the seller included radio gear and all remaining kit spares. However seller did not include original box or manual, so currently on the hunt for these to complete it.

Never really liked the 01 focus livery, but this car has changed my mind, that looks brilliant

Jim_GT-R: Thanks mate! For me the 2000 livery was my personal favourite, though I never understood why tamiya didn't update the mold to take out the center brace across the front intake to make it look more like the 2001 spec car.

Great examples.....love the pair!
Subaruhess
R/CVET: Thanks! I just need the 2002 & 2003 focus's to complete the set, both kits getting quite rare as of late.

This looks awesome! I had the chance to buy one of these a couple of years ago from a friend. All it needed was a new body, which back then was relatively easy to find. Seeing this makes me regret not taking him up on his offer.

erics`son: Thanks man! I know how you feel though, I remember seeing this kit in my LHS for £98 back when they first came out.

Looks great, also nice with his brother! Only the drivers seem to had a little brawl last night in the whiskey bar.. Good work!

ECUpparilloT: Lol! Now that you mention it they look a bit smashed, I guess carlos & Luis enjoy their drink.
