Its been a very long time since we posted some of the Midweek Eye Candi pics. How ever this isn’t exactly a midweek post but non the less we thought it would be wise to share such and image of this Ford Focus with you. Notice the amazing badge that the Focus RS is sporting.

I took some time off from my hectic schedule to make a turn at the annual Streetmod Motorshow over the weekend. Thanks to Marlize Hoon for dragging me along. This event took place at the Good Hope Centre and was one promising one not to be missed by all petrolheads. Once again the Mother City’s modfathers and sisters didn’t disappoint the crowd.
The main floor was packed with some awesome metal ranging from some of the hottest hotrods to Cape Town’s finest modified mobiles. The basement was allocated to the …

These days cars are looking hotter and hotter in their OEM state. Take for example this Ford Focus RS, its got the standard trimings, but an aftermarket set of rims that have been resprayed Frozen Blue with the mirrors to match and a set of coilovers.

Would you do anything else to this Ford Focus RS to try improve the look?

Team dB and Team Autopunks have outdone themselves-AGAIN!! They always do something good for the community and this time round it was a fundraising event for the Goodwood Cricket Club.
