The original model: an accessible sports car
Launched in 2005, the Ford Focus ST represented the culmination of Ford's sporting philosophy applied to a compact family sedan. Developed on the basis of the second-generation Focus, this ST (Sport Technologies) version perfectly embodied the balance between performance and daily practicality.
Under its hood, a 2.5-liter 5-cylinder engine produced 225 horsepower, providing remarkable driving sensations while maintaining the spaciousness and versatility of a family sedan. Its exterior design, enhanced by specific aerodynamic elements and distinctive alloy wheels, clearly asserted its sporting ambitions.
This Ford Focus ST quickly became a huge success among sports driving enthusiasts, establishing a benchmark in the high-performance compact sedan segment and foreshadowing the future of Ford's ST lineup.
Ford at the dawn of the 21st century
At the time of the Focus ST launch, Ford was undergoing a creative renaissance driven by its kinetic design. The American brand, with its century-old heritage, aimed to reclaim the European market with models that combined technological innovation and driving pleasure.
Founded in 1903 by Henry Ford, the brand revolutionized the automotive industry with mass production and the democratization of the automobile. In the 2000s, Ford relied on this historical expertise to develop vehicles that met the new expectations of European drivers, particularly demanding in terms of road handling and finish. The Focus ST fit perfectly into this strategy of reclaiming the market for modern cars.
A color that makes an impression
The orange of this Ford Focus ST is not an arbitrary choice. This shade, named "Orange Impact", was one of the signature colors offered by Ford for its ST lineup. Inspired by the aesthetic codes of motorsport, it symbolized the energy and performance that Ford wanted to associate with its sports models.
This orange color quickly became iconic of the ST range, to the point where many owners adopted it as a true banner. At Ford enthusiast gatherings, orange Focus STs were immediately distinguishable, creating a recognizable community united around this distinctive hue.
Remarkably, this color marked a whole generation of European motorists, especially in France where the orange Focus ST became a symbol of accessible sportsmanship. It perfectly represented the spirit of the 2000s, a time when manufacturers dared to offer bright and bold shades, far from the grey sobriety that dominated the automotive market at the time.
Even today, this orange shade remains sought after by collectors and brand enthusiasts, reflecting the lasting impact of Ford's bold aesthetic choice.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.
Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.
What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
Does the model car come with protection?
Yes, each model car is systematically delivered in its protective box. This box preserves the collectible value and protects your model car from dust and shocks.
