Unbelievable fit and quality! This Focus RS sounds and looks epic with their full system!
I couldn't wait any longer to take the Focus RS out for a good drive since Ash and myself put her back together. Unfortunately Ash couldn't make it so it meant it was just me and the missus. We did around 1,500 miles in 5 days driving through England, France, Belgium, Holland and Germany! Did the Focus RS make it there and back ok?

I can definitely confirm that the 2.5ltr volvo engine is shite on fuel but it makes such a good noise. Got a full custom 3" turbo back on my Volvo V70R but with the volvo build quality and sound deadening it doesn't drone and is easy to live with, my neighbours may say different though 😂😂
😅👌🏼
Great family video... Nice to see uncle Benji taking his neice on a roadtrip 👍 👌 😀
😂
11 500 Mk2 RS made ... Lucky enough to own 1 of the 315 we were allocated here in Australia in the frozen white like yours ... love it !
Frozen white is such a stunning colour, wish I saw more MK2 RS’s on the road here in Australia. Then again I’m lucky to even see an XR5 Turbo / ST lately 🇦🇺
I've never seen another one on the road . @@TheGearChange
@@elar13 Oh wow, I’ve seen a handful but none as of late. The most common colours I see on the road when I do see them are Frozen White and Ultimate Green 👌🏼
makes sense as of the 315 sold here 150 were Ultimate Green . 83 performance Blue and 82 Frozen White @@TheGearChange
The 5 things I Love
1. ENGINE - 2.5 5 Cylinder Turbocharged Engine
2. POWER -The way the power is delivered to the front wheel drive
3. LOOKS - The looks of the car, especially in real life
4. RESIDUAL VALUE - How they hold their value
5. FEEL - The feeling when driving it
6. SPECIAL KITS - RECARO SEATS, THE BODYKIT (Big Wide Arches, Wings, Diffuser), THE OPENING OF THE FRONT BONET USING A KEY
PS: I own one in ULTIMATE GREEN - in MALAYSIA
4,501 is the number of Mk1's that were made, of which I have had one since 2004. They built about 11,500 of the Mk2, and absolutely shed loads of the Mk3
its so good looking. my dad has one in pristine condition. he keeps it in his garage. hes had since 2009 and it only has 10k miles on it. and its held its value very well, and the sound of that 2.5l 5 cylinder engine, is to die for
I had a brand new one in 2009 too but rejected it back to Ford after 9K miles due to the amount of faults it had
@EVILGT dam unlucky Bro. My dad's has been perfect. And is like new. Iv driven it a few times. Its sweet
Definitely punching there Benji! 😉
Good to see you on a road trip again 👌🏼
Great video Ben definitely need more road trip videos 👊🏽
Interesting road trip and nicely showing how good these Mk2 Focus' were if given a bit of care. Just a shame the boost issue - something I've never had in 15 years in ST's.😂
“I’ll give you full boost, let’s av a go”. Love these one liners 👍🏻
Leng leng couple - great video Benji
Another great video mate. Takes a strong couple to do a road trip together. Thanks for all of your content this year. Have a great Christmas the both of you.
🤣🤣🤣 been together 13 years now so we’ve learnt how to tolerate each other all this time 🤣
@@EVILGT just wait till you've been together 38 years...lol...where's the off switch.
Great video! Hopefully hopefully new solenoid sorts out the boost problem, have a good Christmas! P.S I’ve been a subscriber since you and lee started up keep smashing the videos out!
Quality viewing guys , what a great advert for the mk2 RS this is , i still miss mine having to sell it in April this year . 11500 of these were made .
Hi Ben,once again a great video on the MK2 rs focus, I probably think others have said,there were 4501 MK1 rs focus's and about 11500 MK2 rs focus's,have a lovely Christmas and happy new year.
Another great watch Ben looked a fantastic trip nice you can take your missus with you , really makes me fancy another mk2 Rs , keep up the great content and have a great Christmas 👏👏👍🏼
Yes! Get one bought! Thanks very much mate likewise 🍻
Great video Ben - really enjoying these vlog type road trip videos!
Thanks mate 👍🏼
Great video mate ,looks like a great trip ,bit of car content and good time spent with the Misses ,both boxes ticked 👍👌👏
Indeed mate. Thanks very much 🍻👍🏼
A really good video Ben, and yer dead right, the dirty RS looks great.
Thanks mate 👍🏼
Great video mate really enjoyed watching it and the RS is awesome man love it 👍🏼👌🏼😁
Nice to see the trusty RS made the road trip in one piece Ben.
Again he showed his personality by only giving you full boost when he felt the need! Haha
Haha exactly 🤣👌🏼
Well seems you got more words out of the good lady in 1 video than a whole series with Ashe...... Great video
🤣🤣🤣 very true! Thanks mate 👍🏼
Used to have a 57 Reg Wolf Race ST , absolutely loved it.
As someone else has said mate I’d be confident it’s the boost solenoid, I need to replace mine on my mk2 ST as I don’t have any proof it’s been changed before and I get the odd occasion in 4th gear where it drops boost for a second and then gives full boost again, some people change them quite often as it’s a high stress component, give that a go mate, they’re not too expensive either and should be easy for you with your mechanic knowledge now days 😉🤣
Thanks mate yeah a few have said the same 👍🏼
Used to have a green one of these, epic cars and they sound amazing
Currently own a w204 C63 which needs a gearbox refurbishment (£££)
Always wanted to do a euro trip but never got round to it but tempted to once the c63 is fixed
Get it done! We had a W204 too. Sounds epic aswell 👌🏼
Great video as always Benji, shame carloft wasn’t as smooth as last time 😂🤦🏻♂️
Great little vid Benji. Nice one mate. Happy Christmas! 👍👍👌
Thanks mate likewise 🍻
Great video 👍👍what a car that’s got some speed didn’t realise they were that quick merry Xmas 👍👍🎅
It’s rapid to be fair! All the best mate 🍻👍🏼
Great video .. maybe you should get a second channel reviewing hotels :-)
Never seen a car lift hotel before.
Enjoyed this one Ben, I do enjoy a good road trip!
Thanks mate 👍🏼
Nice one Ben, great vid keep them coming.
Thanks mate 👍🏼
Smashed it mate, really enjoyable watch with my pasta n beer 😊
Thanks mate 👍🏼
Epic video Ben as always! I took the Mrs, 12 yr old twin daughters, 10 yr old step-son, and 5 yr old daughter to Disneyland Paris this time last year for a few days over the New Years from Formby and back in my LR Disco Sport doing c1500 miles with a couple of detours. Faultless drive (believe it or not for a Land Rover) but I'd have taken the RS exhaust sound over 4 kids in the car any day of the week :D
Merry Christmas mate!
🤣🤣🤣 I’m probably with you there mate 👌🏼 thanks very much! All the best 🍻👍🏼
Love this era of RS, unmistakable what it is 💪
Same. Definitely my favourite 👌🏼
Great video, love the road trips. Not sure about this time of year but if you go down to the Rhine from the city centre there are loads of places to sit out eat & drink. if you cross the bridge and go to the other side there is a massive fair on the other side and plenty of plces to sit in the sun and have a beer.I've been to Düsseldorf twice in the last two years on the bikes but go in the summer months, way better.
Keep up the road trip videos.
Christmas markets in Dusseldorf were huge! Really good mooch around. Maybe a cool change?! 😬🍻👌🏼
And there was me thinking Benjy had a certificate for everything including videography! Cracking video as always.
🤣 thanks mate 👍🏼
What a trip and motor. Proper hot hatch 🔥
Ben, great video as always loved road trip good adventure.😊
Thanks mate 👍🏼
Great vid Ben can’t Believe Lee has gone but watched evil gt from the start up but it’s just as good fairplay to you hope you have a merry Christmas.
Thanks mate. All the best to you too 🍻
Love the Focus RS! Legend
Every credit getting the 175, bet that was a right buzz. Merry Xmas Uncle Benji 🎅🏼
Thanks mate. All the best 🍻
Superb video Uncle Benji 👏🏻👏🏻 Pity about the boost issue but glad it didn't put a dampener on your road trip...Merry Christmas to u and the missus m8 and enjoy the festive period EvilGT style buddy 🎅🎄🎁🍺👏🏻👏🏻😍😍
Likewise mate. Thanks for watching! 🍻
Fantastic adventure Ben both for yourself, your partner & the Focus RS right back to the day of purchase. All the Best to you for 2024 & the channel. Been a subscriber from the collection video of the B7 RS4 😁
Thanks mate 🙏🏻
Just cant beat that sound 5pot forever armen
good video..used to own the mk2 st which had a boost issue i took the fuse for the boost solenoid out for an hr and when i put it back in it cured the problem
Great trip. BTW Boost solenoid left the chat. It´s located behind the driverside wheel - mounted on turbo. :-)
Spot on mate thanks 👍🏼
@@EVILGT i had a very similar issue on my old mk2 rs and it was the knock sensor. know fault codes just exact same issue, only changed the knock sensor as it was the last thing left that i hadnt changed and thats what fixed it
Nice history lesson- all the best 👊🏻
Really enjoyed this, definitely want to do something similar myself one day. In for the TTRS too, good sponsor.
Good luck mate 🍻👍🏼
Great video well enjoyed it. Keep up the good work.
Good on ya Benji gotta be ya best video yet.....You certainly landed on ya feet with the bell boy too. Keep it up lad your going places ...Stockport ??
🤣 thanks mate 👍🏼
What a great video this was now really enjoyed it well done 👍👍👍
Thanks mate 👍🏼
Great video Ben I enjoyed that pal. I'm a long time FRS mk2 owner from Bolton, Sabre tuned 510bhp+
Nice! At 420ish this is quick enough. Yours must be rapid 🏎️💨🍻
Not gonna lie I absolutely miss you and Leroy doing these type of vids road trips breaking hotels being pulled over by the local police like another episode from my favourite tv series 🤣.. Nice to see you on a road trip your bell boy did a sterling job, hats off to her and keep up the great work as always I look forward to every egt weekly update, a beautiful blessed Xmas 🎄 to you Leroy and your beautiful families 🫶🏽, your fans from cptSA ♥️🇿🇦 Merry Christmas Benji
Thanks very much mate. All the best to you guys too 🍻👌🏼
I really really like focuses they such a excellent cars
Absolutely a stonker of a video pal.
The sound from both engine and exhaust is sweet and purrs beautiful. Nothing beats a petrol engine, sound or smell just pure bliss. Same with all my motorbikes, the smell, sound and everything about them
Sorry u had a boost issue, but 100% behind you when you say cars have personalities. Each car have their own DNA
I’ve had all Mks Focus just never RS. But I love how the drive and just feel safe and planted on the road.
Top video and hope you can do another similar one, let us know if you fixed boost.
Cheers fella 👍. Ps. Nothing beats a 🇧🇪🍻.
Thanks for watching mate much appreciated 🙏🏻🍻👍🏼
Smashed it Ben great content mate…😀 pity you didn’t get the RS on the ring 🏁
definitely would have done had it not been closed for the winter. Thanks mate
Merry Xmas Ben great road trip Lee needs to rain these new Coat shopping holidays in 😂
🤣🤣🤣 you’re not wrong
Tool bro I had 160mph in a mk2 st 💙 miss that sound I don’t miss the fuel gauge acting like the speedo tho 🤣
🤣 just in reverse 😅👍🏼
Lee Roy will be well impressed you breaking a car lift in the hotel. 🤣 Classic evilgt 👍. 170 mph in the beast , Woop!! !
🏎️💨🤣👌🏼
I've got a green 10 plate and it is such a lovely car it like slipping on those really comfy shoes
I don't miss Lee anymore, your new co star is far easier on the eye. Benji does the Alpine passes next... 🤞🏻
🤣🤣🤣👌🏼
What a great video mate just sat & watched all of it I'd love 2 own an RS but unfortunately I've just got the ST but great video
Thanks mate. ST still a brilliant motor 👍🏼
Thanks Ben I thoroughly enjoyed that video. That’s my type of stuff great content as always, just say one thing your Mrs I think you’re punching Well above your weight there mate lol and thank you for sharing the journey 😊😊😊catch up soon mate
🤣👍🏼 cheers 🍻
Great video. I'd love to see an rs4 road trip...
Another one? 😵😬
@@EVILGT of course, you put that blue wrap on it and did a trip to Marbella... So yeah, another road trip please! I love that audi
boost issue sounds like boost solenoid playing up very common issue, i miss my Mk2
Great video road trip..FYI it was the MK1 focus RS that had a build total off 4501, Think the MK2 was around 11500
Hotel problem was born by your Missus mate - she did not rev the focus in the lift!! 😂
🤣🤣🤣 I did ask her too! She was having non of it 🤣
Fantastic video, ya missis is bangin lol just winding you m8, what a brilliant vlog, hope you had a brilliant time at the xmas markets, looks mint.
Cheers bud 👍🏼
Great vlog. Merry Christmas xx
Thanks mate. Likewise 👍🏼🍻
How mad is that having your car on the balcony does that mean you've be bit by the rs.👌
Definitely 👍🏼
Great vid Ben
Thanks mate 👍🏼
Them black tips look nice
Great trip Ben. Would love to know how many of the 4501 are left now tho….
Very enjoyable as always 👍
Cheers mate 👍🏼
My guess would be boost solenoid to why its not boosting properly 👍
Missed the road trips Ben..Merry Christmas to you all
Likewise mate. All the best 🍻
Awesome video mate, your Mrs the Bell boy lol ,she is awesome FairPlay to her mate you have a good un there👍 And ref cars having a personality I'm with you on that 100% . Merry Christmas to you and all of your Family mate and thank you for entertaining me for the last few years and may 2024 bring us all a fantastic year and I'm looking forward to all of the Awesome evil gt videos for 2024 🙌🙌🙌🙌
Thanks very much for sticking with us mate! All the best 🍻👌🏼
We want more Mrs. Benji !!!!
Boost solenoid mate, although you prob already found it but they are notorious to pack up. On the offside behind the wheel
Collins said the same thing mate yeah 👍🏼
It's usually down to something small like boost solenoid or a leak somewhere if it's not boosting properly
I took my Mrs to some fancy place for food, it didn't end well, I'm with you on the Chinese 😂😂 top video as always.
Thanks mate 👍🏼
Cracking video mate 👌 love them focus’s! Had an ST earlier this year and mate it was such a hoot! 😅 May I ask what camera you use for your videos? I’d like to start a TH-cam channel but dunno what camera to get. Thanks mate 👊🏼
Panasonic GH5 mate. Good luck 👍🏼
loved my mk2 RS. got a MR290 ST3 mk2.5 now and is almost as much fun as the RS.
Brilliant vid benji and not 1 engine management light either win win 👍😀
Haha there’s tape over it from the last time I think 🤣👌🏼
@@EVILGT 😂 😂😂 merry xmas benji 👍😀
Great film Benjie.
Thanks mate 👍🏼
Awesome stuff 👌
Great vlog. Should get your good lady involved in few more vlogs.
Had the car at Stainless Creations today..Gradon looking forward to the Carlton coming. Cheers guys....Derek in Falkirk.
Cracking bunch of guys! 🍻
Grate video. I'll now be planning that same trip the car on the balcony sold it to me. Did you ever find out the issue with the cars boost?
only got back on Monday night mate. Edited the video and organised some other things. I've ordered a boost solenoid thing so hoping it's that
@EVILGT ahh, sorry, didn't realise ok will you do a video on it being fixed?
6:05 women and cars, always great fun
Brilliant Video, makes me want to do a road trip :)
Definitely do mate 👍🏼
Doris may not have been with you in person but he was there in spirit negging you out by taking away your boost😂. I wonder how many new coats he has bought🤔
🤣🤣🤣 always sprinkling his neg dust that lad 👌🏼
U do a fantastic job bud keep it up U did a fantastic job on the seat cupa
Thanks very much 👍🏼
Great video mate, you need to do more road trips. If you can convince your mrs to start appearing on future videos im sure you will get a lot more subscribers. Just tell her it will mean you can buy her more clothes and make-up .
🤣🤣🤣👌🏼
Mrs ben looked ecstatic to starring in the vid
🤣
Boost control solenoid on the way out? Get a genuine MAC solenoid put in, about £80. Great trip mate, would love to do same in my self built ST. Edit: haha, should have commented after seeing the whole vid lol. See, I was right! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I fix these things.
I believe so mate yeah. I read the OEM one is Prieburg or something like that on this car no?... I've ordered one anyway. Get a road trip done!!
Correct, Pierburg make the OEM ones. Just bought one for my ST from GSF, was about £60@@EVILGT
Good road trip but moaning about putting fuel in and flooring is a little silly lol Next time go to Bruges - beer and ribs you will love it!
Haven't you got a certificate for fixing elevators?
Great vid!
🤣 must have somewhere 👍🏼
The boost problem😂😂😂 you mean the nut loose behind the wheel 🙊🙊🙊
🤣🤣🤣
Defo boost solenoid had the same issue when I had mine
