Picking Up My "new" 53 Focus Tomorrow

Hi everyone,

Put a deposit down on a Ford Focus today & am really looking forward to picking it up tomorrow. Was impressed by how well it drove, but then she does have pretty low mileage considering her age. It's a 1.6 LX I went for in the end, as that was as far as my budget could stretch from a reputable local garage.

Standard intro type stuff: I'm Sarah & I live in Leeds. Apologies in advance if I end up posting lots of questions in the Focus Club, really want to learn how to carry out basic maintenance myself.
