Looks very nice mate. Where did you get that focus badge from?

Got em on eBay mate. Some guy was doing a deal 3 for £12. Still got two more. I'm debating whether to put them on the side.

Here's one for example: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-Ford-Focus-S-Badge-Ford-UK-Stock-/291099303620?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item43c6dedec4

The covers I got from aliexpress:

Had timing belt replaced today and water pump. Better safe than sorry.

Still waiting for the rest of my mods to arrive. Damn China Post :)

What year and milage are you at now?

I've owned the car since May 2013, it's currently at about 51k miles. No idea if it was ever changed as not noted down in the service history. But I thought better safe than sorry. Whilst changing the belt, my guy noticed the water pump was leaking, so replaced that as well. ;)

Isn't it 100k for timing belt? Or is that diesel?

Yeah i know its recommended every 100k miles, but my guy noticed it was looking a bit worn during my last service and recommended I change it at some point this year. At least I can mark it in the service book as done, another 70-100k miles out of it.

Matches the red theme I have for the outside. Hopefully calipers will get done next month in red ;)

Not much to report for this month, save the few cheap mods. Gave the car a good clean yesterday, one coat of Poorboys Blackhole and two coats of FK1000p. Gleamin :D

New valve caps with Red Focus MK3 logo. Let's hope they don't get nicked. Will post some more when fitted

Got a new mod for you!

Knock a hole in the wall and park your car in the garden :D

That way you can protect your asset ;)

Haven't had a chance to do any mods in awhile but finally got round to fitting a rear mobius. Writing up a guide for anyone interested, and pics to follow.

Here's a nightime test, on the way back from the gym.
