Now’s Your Chance To Own Ken Block’s Gymkhana Ford Fiesta
Love him or hate him, Ken Block has put rallying back on the map. With his wild driving style, incredible business nous and big budget projects, Block has become one of the biggest players in motorsport. His series of Gymkhana videos are some of the most popular videos on YouTube, with his ‘Urban Playground’ film currently sitting on over 82 million views.
Part of Block’s success has been his ability to compete in a number of disciplines: rally, rallycross and Gymkhana. To enable him to compete, major rally tuning company M-Sport built Block a Hybrid Function Hoon Vehicle (HFHV), which can be transformed into a gravel-spec rally car or Gymkhana hooner quickly and easily. But the best thing about the HFHV? That’s the fact that you could be its next owner, because it’s currently up for sale.
Block’s HFHV is basically a top specification WRC Fiesta, and as it is now, its 2.0-litre four-cylinder Ecoboost engine churns out 600bhp and 664lb ft of torque. The car also features M-Sport ultra-long travel suspension, gravel-specification Brembo brakes, FIA-approved Recaro seats, a Cosworth ECU and a reinforced rear differential - for all those Gymkhana antics.
If you want to buy this incredible multi-discipline weapon, you’ll have to stump up an eye-watering £250,000. Sure, that’s a lot of cash, but how often does an opportunity like this come about? And if you’re seriously interested in the Fiesta, then why not also buy an ex-Colin McRae Subaru to go with it for the start of a perfect rally car collection.

Seeing as Block and I are BFFs, I wonder if he could do me a 100% discount…?
lol, you wish alex, it would probably break like the rest of your cars
Maybe a special “Pals4Life” price of £500,000.
Even with 99% discount I wont be able to buy that car ;(
One careful owner?
Sure, and kept warm on a garage too.
Hopefully the money will go towards another Gymkhana ;)
Stop calling it “you chance!” I have no money!
Show me the carfax
@Adnan: I think CT needs an “Official” car of CT!
“Never abused”
“company vehicle used for short distances, well maintained…”
It’s all fun and games until you see how many times it’s been repaired on the title. Might even have salvage on it .
Does it come with a lifetime supply of tires? Knowing me by the end of the first year or so of ownership I’m gonna end up spending more on tires and gas than the actual car.
