Hi from a Mk2 Focus owner!

Hello all! Happy (so far!) owner of a Mk2 Focus Saloon1 checking in!

This is the first car I've ever bought as opposed to being donated / inheriting, so I reckon it'll keep a special place in my heart for a while.

A couple of general questions about here- is there any way to disable the visual post editor and revert to something like BBCode / Markdown? I don't see any option in account preferences but could have easily overlooked it.

I also see there's a members' galleries section, is that the best place for images like above, or is somewhere like imgur grand? Does creating a gallery here enable any special features, like an in-post slideshow?

I also have some questions about modifications of a sort- fixing cosmetic issues, replacing a missing 12v socket (!), replacing the stereo/head unit. Are these best posted in one thread in the Ford Focus section of the forum, or would it be better asking in the Modifications section? I'd guess the former, but there seems to be a number of overlapping sections even beyond these!

I've done a bit of reading of some posts here before joining and it seems like a very useful and friendly place!

Cheers! :smile:

1: from what I hear, there weren't a whole lot of saloons sold in the UK...

    I saw one in West Lothian (Livingston) it took me back as it looks weird compared to the 'normal' hatchback.
