I’ve been back to mountune HQ again a couple of times this month. The first was to test drive their fantastic m520 MRX demo car (see page 22), and while I was there I noticed that the workshops were full of Mk3 RSs – many of which were in for performance upgrades (including a couple for the m520!), but a couple of cars were fairly stock-looking. When I asked Service Manager, Fred Clack, what they were in for he explained that mountune also offers regular servicing and maintenance updates too. Not just for the Mk3 Focus RS, but all sorts of models – basically if they support it with tuning, they can also keep on top of the car's regular servicing as well.
It was at that point the penny dropped. I must admit, I’ve been so engrossed with the performance packages mountune offer that I didn’t realise they catered for regular servicing. But, when you think about it, it makes perfect sense. So many fast Ford and RS owners (myself included) are always apprehensive when it comes to letting people loose on their car – the internet and social media is awash with horror stories of cars not being looked after properly when in for work, and owners are, quite rightly, very wary when it comes to trusting who to let work on their cars.
