Ken Block's Gymkhana-Ford has gone on sale in the US

The Ford Focus RS RX that Ken Block used during the filming of Gymkhana 9 from 2016 must now find a new owner.

It is one of just 3 cars that M-Sport built for Ken Block. And now the late rally star's Ford Focus RS RX, which is a Gymkhana racer, must find a new home.

This is written by Racecars For You, who have put the car up for sale.

The car, which, in addition to appearing in the ninth Gymkhana video, is built for rallycross, has, according to the sales lineup, been inspected from roofline to underbody in connection with a clean-up.

"It is ready to find its next home," write the people behind Racecars For You. The 2-liter, 4-cylinder engine is the result of a collaboration between Ford Performance and M-Sport. But it is not clear how many horsepower Ken Block has had to do well with in his time.

On the other hand, it is all controlled by an engine control from the famous Ford tuner Cosworth. That and everything else on/in the car is included in the purchase. The bad news is that the price has not been disclosed.

It is not the first time that a Ken Block car has appeared with a for sale sign in the windshield. Both in 2016 and 2021, when three of the man's cars were sold at once, there was something to come after.

Unfortunately, Ken Block himself is no longer here. The American died tragically in a snowmobile accident in January 2023. He left behind a wife and daughter Lia Block.

After her father's death, Lia Block signed a contract with a Formula 1 team and has since briefly participated in several Formula series. Read more about it here .
