New focus shed

[mr alan]

I have upgraded the old focus to a newer one. It’s a titanium spec so has all the toys on it as well. Only 50 odd thousand miles on it. Drives lovely

Wouldnt call that a shed to be honest, looks very tidy.

I expected a mk1 which was my first car (a 1.8 zetec). If they're anything to go by this mk2 will be an excellent shed and great fun on a b road.

Looks a nice car. What year/engine is it?

Nice looking car to be fair, at least the handbrake works well on your steep drive!

Not a clue why it’s done that. It’s right way up in phone. Very annoying

It’s a 2008 1.6 tdci. Only £30 a year tax. Been out on a run of 80 miles today and it says 56 mpg average. Very comfortable and a lot of car for the money

Not sure that's a mark 2 is it?
Have to admit I know little about these but there was at least one 'mark' between the mk1 and this one.
Tidy looking car and not remotely shed-like in looks or price (i'm guessing),

It’s a Mk2.5 (facelifted Mk2)

They did the same with the Mk1..

Perfectly pleasant cars to drive, good luck with it op

Yes it’s not really a shed but it will be carrying out all daily duties. As in taking the dog out, going to the tip and going to Asda, therefore unfortunately it will probably become a shed in three years or so. Good price as well. Very pleased

Looks great and not a shed . Makes sure you do lots of frequent oil changes on that engine. I am thinking its the PSA 1600 , which likes sludge and turbos siezing. But keep on top of that and should do you for many years.

Make sure you give it a good blast every so often to let the DPF clear itself out too

Looks like a steep driveway, best check the handbrake.
