Definitely. Had a 1.8 myself a few years ago. It was an estate, I bought it to help with a house move and planned to sell it on quickly. Ended up keeping it for two years because it was such a great drive.funkyrobot said:
Great little cars. Love the mk1 Focus.Petrolhead95 said:
Any love for my £50 Corsa I bought a year or so ago for my first car? Needed a new timing chain fitted which I luckily had one lying around. Fitted that myself and the interior needed a seriously deep clean, also which I could do myself. Racked up 40,000 miles in the first year and part exchanged it for £1,100. Only needed a new oil pressure switch in that whole time - bargain!
I had a Corsa of that generation. It got to 190k miles without a problem of any kind.Great cheap cars, although not very fun!

Wondered if he just didn't want someone to take it then smash through every speed camera on the way home.
