Still had front seats, but rear seats removed and bare floor, so I assume it's some rally mock-up, maybe fit a cage and buckets for promo use?

The reg plate on that (providing its not just a copy of a genuine works shell plate, even tho i think it is for promo purposes) relates to a bonafied Ford Built Works WRC car :thumb:

Its a Works Re-shell then. 0006 FMC was a rally car (i.e, roll cage, buckets, proflex etc etc)

As far as i know ... OO06 FMC has never been a Focus WRC car, it's just a show car based on a std Focus with a fibreglass kit and some wheels, can't say i've ever seen it tbh, did it drive ? a lot of the show cars have black windows so you can't see (that theres nothing) inside some don't even have an engine in them !!

No, we've had a few over here for the Rally as well. They're Replicas used for advertising etc, in fact a lad not too far from me has an Ex WRC Focus with a Plazme screen and some WRC Console game deviant hooked up for the "Real WRC Experience" at €20 a time. lol

He makes a fortune around Rally time.
