Hey buddy,

I can say that I have not as of this morning when I parked up on 33,333 miles...

I can also safely say that I give the engine a lot of pressure haha I am quite often in 6th gear then go for the OT on the A1...

Does it only happen in 6th?

Cheers

Easy to spot if you know what to look for, and a check with reg no on ford etis website will confirm if the recall is outstanding.

 

No issues with dual mass , but there were a few clutch problems apparently on early focuses, I never saw any. Alot prefer the 125 with the smooth 6 spd box, but I dont have any issues with my 100 5speed single mass (chipped to 140)

Hey Iantt - how do you check with a reg plate number (on Ford Etis) as I can only see it asking for a vin entry?

Also looking at getting a 125 or 100 not sure yet - will be driving on the motorway every now and then but more from town to town, thoughts would help..looking at the difference in power?

Thanks

i just checked and reg option is there, sometimes different browsers can affect the website . try a different browser.
as for 100 or 125, the 125 is a better option with the 6 speed box.
but ive had no issues with my 100 and 5 speed box. now 140hp but even when 100 it was fine for my local journeys.

Although both versions will do the job, the 125BHP has a 6 speed box as well as more performance which should motorway 'cruising' a more pleasant experience.  (The longer 6th gear should mean you are revving lower at 70MPH so less fuel is used).

This is my Titanium X

 

The 1.0t ecoboost 125 is a fantastic engine.

I like the ice blue, a real head turner but without the body kit, I can imagine it'll look simple

 

i love the 18" 8 spoke alloys 😍
