Here i am selling my runabout MKII 55 Plate Ford Focus TDCI
I am looking to downsize to a smaller car as i no longer need to have a car of this size to get to work now. Looking at getting a Golf or something like that.
• 55 Plate (2005) MK II 5 Door Hatchback Ford Focus Zetec Climate in Blue
• Diesel 1.8 TDCI (122k Miles)
• Manual 5 speed Gearbox
• Power steering with 3 modes (Comfort, Standard, Sport)
• Electric front driver and passenger windows
• Manual rear seat passenger windows
• Electric heated and adjustable wing mirrors
• Electric heated front windscreen
• Electric heated rear window
• Electric adjusted headlights
• Height adjustable driver’s seat
• Driver and passenger dash and steering wheel airbags including seat and curtain airbags
• Factory fitted in dash 6 CD changer
• Air conditioning (It works)
• Nokia Bluetooth hands free kit (works with any phone which has Bluetooth)
• Trip computer with usual readouts (MPG, Miles left, Distance, Steering settings etc)
• 15" Factory fitted Alloy wheels
• Body coloured front and rear bumpers,
• Front low level Fog lights.
The only problems i have had with the car is that the alternator went (so this is pretty new) the driver’s side wheel bearing needed replacing (so this is pretty new) and i had to replace one of the boost hoses as it split and needed replacing. Other than those things the car has not missed a beat, starts every time and is surprisingly fun to drive for a diesel. It’s also very economical, i usually get around 55mpg (560-580 miles to a tank) but if you drive like a granny then you’re looking at 65mpg+ i have had it up into the low 80's (driving back from Kent) but then i was driving at 50mph all the way home !!
It is now due for another service which i will be doing in the next week or so. I fitted new front tyres around 6 months ago and they have plenty of wear left, The rears are ok now but will need replacing fairly soon (i may end up doing this as i use it every day so will update if i do).
There are a couple of cosmetic things that need to be done, the owner who had it before me forgot about some bird mess on the bonnet which has damaged the lacquer, i was going to get around to sort this but haven’t yet, there is a small area on the rear bumper where some paint has been removed but this is a simple repair and will probably do this before it sells.
So i am looking for offers really
Cheers all.
