Well all how's things.

Going to look at a 2008 ford Focus zetec 1.8 tdci import from nothern ireland tommorow and wondering about the timing belt.It has 114,000 miles and he told me the belt has not been changed.

My question is, should it have being changed already and if not when and how much as i heard there is different belts for different model years.

Thank's as this would be really helpfull

Yes I think these have 2 timing belts ones a wet belt this a really big job to change 8 hours labour

Thank's for the reply.That's what the guy said, wet belts and that it could cost 800 euro,but my worry is, should it have being done already or is it at 125,000 miles.And of course the price as i cant afford to get to much done on it for a while after i buy it.

If it's not ford full service history at right time an mileage ford won't stand over that length time so it has be done u wanna seriously take that into consideration before making a decision maybe get extra money off price car

Yes Mick i'm considering putting that to him tomorrow night to pull back the price of it.
He has it only 5 months but he said that he has the full service history but i'd like to know as much as possible a bout it before i meet him tomorrow night.

BTW i did a car history check on it, and it's mint, but i don't know any thing really about the service maintenance as i'm just after selling my RX8 and i'm raw to these diesel engines.

:( The deal did not happen so on the focus hunt again.

Well it's buyers market take ur time an don't rush into it
