Definitely - and you seem to be enjoying ownership
Absolutely. It's not definite but there's a possibility of a road trip to Belgium towards the end of the year, I'm an admin for a group that remembers WW1 soldiers and there's a few of us that might be going out there to go round some of the cemeteries and trenches. Look at it this way, a reliable workhorse for £25 a week.
Bargain in my eyes!
Will always be folk who luck out running a old car for years feeding it some oil they found in a shed and then getting rid when it needs some work.
Can see the appeal of that but I quite like to keep a car up to scratch, even if it is a shed.
I bet that focus will do many more miles and bring that figure down anyway if you decided to keep plugging along with it.

I agree, I like my cars up to scratch too. I intend to keep the Focus running for as long as I can, it's proved to be so dependable and I like the car. Bargain in my eyes!

Just been touching in some of the worst of the stonechips round the front of the Focus, I've never been good at using touch in paint really neatly but looks a bit better than it did.
Use a cocktail stick or safety pin for it, much easier and better finish than the brush they provide

Bloody ell!
Chuffed to see she’s still in fine fettle.
I love checking in and seeing how the old girls going.
Thank you. 1000 miles in about 5 1/2 weeks isn't many for me but there's been no long trips since October. Hopefully I'll get up to Northumberland at Easter, will be the first time I've seen Mum for over a year Chuffed to see she’s still in fine fettle.
