If you’re looking for a used Ford Focus RS for sale in Braintree or across North Essex, Perkins Garage offers carefully selected performance Ford models from our Rayne dealership. The Focus RS remains one of the most exciting hot hatchbacks Ford has produced, combining everyday practicality with serious performance, four-wheel drive capability and the kind of driver engagement that has made it a favourite among enthusiasts.

Based just outside Braintree on Dunmow Road in Rayne, we supply quality used Ford vehicles to customers across Essex and beyond. As an established used car specialist and authorised Ford service centre, Perkins Garage offers used Focus RS models backed by professional preparation, friendly service and ongoing aftersales support.

Why the Ford Focus RS Is So Popular

The Ford Focus RS has earned a strong reputation among performance car buyers for delivering genuine pace, sharp handling and everyday usability in one practical package.

Unlike many performance models that can feel compromised in daily use, the Focus RS offers the space and comfort of a family hatchback while also delivering the power and handling expected from a serious hot hatch. It remains a sought-after choice for drivers who want something exciting to own without giving up practicality altogether.

Drivers often choose the Focus RS because it offers:

  • A powerful 2.3-litre EcoBoost petrol engine
  • Four-wheel drive for added traction and confidence
  • Distinctive RS styling and sporty interior design
  • Five-door hatchback practicality
  • Strong performance with everyday usability
  • A loyal following in the Ford performance community

For many enthusiasts, the Focus RS represents one of the most complete fast Fords of recent years.

Performance That Still Feels Special

The Mk3 Ford Focus RS was designed to offer more than just straight-line speed. With its turbocharged EcoBoost engine, advanced all-wheel-drive system and performance-tuned chassis, it delivers a driving experience that feels genuinely involving on the road.

It’s a car that feels just as capable on a fast A-road as it does on the motorway or in everyday driving. The combination of strong acceleration, excellent grip and a confident driving position is a big part of why the RS continues to attract interest on the used market.

Everyday Practicality with RS Character

One of the biggest appeals of the Focus RS is that it still works as a practical everyday car.

The five-door layout gives easy access to the rear seats, while the boot remains usable enough for shopping, luggage or general day-to-day use. That makes it a realistic option for drivers who want performance but still need a car that can handle commuting, weekends away and regular family duties.

Inside the cabin, Focus RS models often feature:

  • Recaro sports seats
  • Ford SYNC infotainment
  • Bluetooth and media connectivity
  • Dual-zone climate control
  • Performance-focused instrument displays
  • Distinctive RS interior trim details

Where is Perkins Garage based?

Perkins Garages Limited is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Perkins Garages Limited to act as a credit broker, not as a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

We can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow.

Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required.
