 ... it fixed at once, which I should've done the first time. The garage told me to leave the car and to come back at around 6pm, I got a phone call from them at 2pm, this had happened at 12 noon, so was awaiting an explanation, instead I was asked if I wanted an electrical fault fixed for GBP80.00, with no other option I agreed, I still wanted to know why this engine cutting out was happening, apparently Ford had done a recall on 1.8 02's, but failed to phone Ford Focus owners up to tell them! I found out later the ...more

----<Ford Focus 1.8 Zetec>---- My partner recently writ ours off, it was an 02 registration, she was fine and the other driver was okay, nothing too serious. The Focus was a nightmare car for us, and a hundred more on both the RAC and AA websites. The car's air bags did not deploy when my partner careered into the back of another road user. I went to Ford and asked them why this hadn't happened, I was told that in some cases, after a battery change, the air bags might need resetting. We were never told about this, never read it in the instruction manual and thank her lucky stars, the car wasn't going so fast that she depended on ...

I bought my Ford Focus 1.8 Zetec five door more than 3 years ago. And I'm still over the moon about it. We, my wife and I that is, wanted a new car. I loved the look of the Focus. It has a really sporty sexy style. My wife also like the car too, now what are the chances of that? Little did we know she was pregnant at the time and the five door nature of the car was going to be very useful. You all know what the exterior of the car looks like, so let's move straight into the interior. The first thing you notice is the space, lots of it in the front and back. Seats are really comfortable and everything is in the right place. The only thing I ...

The past week as gone by in a real blur, mainly thanks to the new Ford Focus 1.8 Zetec 5dr that I have been trundling around in. I have to say that I am quite astounded at what this car can do. Growing up I have always been aware of Ford’s mediocre reputation for building mass-produced but plain cars, which was one of the main reasons for being put off by this brand when I first started to look for a decent car. This new car, though, seems right on target. The car itself looks impressive. Even stationary the Focus sits on the road with poise and purpose. Its aggressive styled nose and bulbous rear-end gives it a leaping stance, which from any angle looks ...
