catnash Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 Hi joining the forum, about to go for a black 59 black focus to get a bigger car than my panda, also on detailing world so coming back to a black car will take more polishing. Going for a 1.6 petrol, price is good from jennings and 2 year warranty. Looking forward to having a great handling car. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to having a great handling car.welcome to the forum Martyn, Some drl fog light surrounds would be a nice addition to your black focus and perhaps a titanium spec lower grill which has the chrome lip. If looking for guides see my profile page, The 1.6 petrol is a good engine but its the only one that you cant remap or tune in any way. However if tuning isint your interest then its 100% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catnash Posted June 15, 2014 Author Share Posted June 15, 2014 1.6 zetec ordered. With two year warranty. Time to get polishing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catnash Posted August 22, 2014 Author Share Posted August 22, 2014 Well carless now. The car had a cracked sump, an oil leak from the crankshaft, dodgy work before i got it. Luckily got my money back well most of it. Now deciding whether to get another 2.5 or get a mk 3. Had a mk 3 the other day, but a part of me prefered the drive of the mk 2.5.
