Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
My brake vacuum pump broke but I got it fixed for cheap. I bought a second hand vacuum pump for 16 pounds. The common problem on the ford focus are two sensors one sensor is located on the top of the engine and the other one is on the bottom of it . It is a common problem that because of them it stops while you're driving it and the glowplug light starts flashing.
What's most practical about your car?
It is reliable It hast a great fuel economy.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The mpg computer, the audio system 6000CD R D S - E O N radio is fantastic but there is a downside it only reads audio format music not mp3. The wheel stereo controls are briliant.
