ok guys, seems that this is for FORD car discussion, mind if i ask something about focus model?

well lately i found that there are quite a numbers of focus ghia for sale, if there any existing owner here who can give some advice on this model?

i'm actually looking for a 2nd hand car, but not quite sure about this focus ghia. Perhaps somebody can give a little help here on the pros&cons thing?

thanks.

As long as there is zero traffic and can maintain consistent speed, it is possible. I did hit 5.96L/100KM for the period of 5/6/2011 - 18/6/2011. Distance traveled is 545.7KM on 32.526L Esso RON95 petrol. Fuelly shows it as 6.0L/100KM though due to decimal rounding.

Conditions back then was that I was working very late nights for two weeks straight (9pm - 11pm) and when going home, I used the LKSA highway onto KESAS and into ELITE. Road traffic hence was very clear. The only obstacle to truly hitting below 5.9L/100KM was the morning traffic from ELITE to NKVE (caused by backlog near the Shah Alam stadium).

Ford Focus is a value car for buy if u looking for best handling and Safety car. Secondhand price also very cheap compare to other same year and C.C car. But for sure,u may spend some money to change and repair those ware and tear parts after u owning the car,and those spare parts are a bit difficult to looking for compare to national car or Japanese car.
All is depend on what u want,if u want a Safety and fun car,Focus is 1 of the best car,if u wish to sold it out after 2-3 years and want higher  resale value,Choosing a national or Japanese car is better.

John can read my mind..

the thing is, he is well aware my car is needed urgently since i have to pass my car to my sister since hers was stolen and now need a car urgently. last friday, i paid all my dues to the car and signed all required documents for the loan. the loan officer and i all paid him in cashier's order for the full sum already.

therefore, there shouldn't be a problem as he mentioned his boss also asked him to collect car earlier but he was waiting for the money.

fine

now money is in on friday, i asked him when can i get, thursday possible or not? he said friday 100% can get but thursday can't promise.

so i said fine since he need to
1. puspakom
2. tint
3. register

assuming he takes 1 DAY to do each task. now its wednesday and he said haven't even taken the car.

I am a real heavy footer, my 100% city can only get me 10km per litre on my Focus TDCI... but this focus FC really surprise me on highway, even at very high speed >140km/h most of the time, i get 15km per litre

Just have a test drive and then u will not buy any Jap car, the solid feeling is just not there, not to mention the handling  .. by buying ford u have to accept the following

1. harder to find sparepart
2. lower 2nd hand value
3. higher maintenance fees compared to Jap make
4. not every workshop knows how to fix ur Ford, even bonnet also they don't know how to open 

hey any fiesta owner here?

I need to ask something.When you start you car...dont drive it..just idling..try press your brake pedal to full...can anyone of you listen a sound 'fuuuu' when start to press your brake pedal to full? *is like air leaking sound*

Technical questions like this ken can help to answer hahaha...

But no, I never experienced that with my fofi... maybe bring it to a local workshop to check it out?

I've called this morning to confirm Friday's pick up as promised.

but he mentioned that next wednesday because :

1. no time / busy
2. got many people take the car too

i mean, like wtf. his job is so easy, take the damned car back to office. does that take so long it will make him lose sales at the small kajang branch? how many sales he gets in 3 hours? 100 cars? ZOMG

1.5 weeks starting from car touching down on Malaysian soil is a more reasonable time frame assuming that no delays/glitches occurs (mine was ready to be collected after 8 working days upon arriving in M'sia but did not collect immediately since I prefer to collect on a Saturday). SA might also be busy attending paperwork for other clients as well. But if 5 days really can get the car, then that'd be great.[/url]

are you kidding? no joke leh. mana tau the workshop ppl will ask you "where is your fuel cap?" if you own a fiesta

how to open bonnet then?

where to get original ford focus projector headlight?

why not u try after market projector head light that comes with DRL?

original one sure very costly then after market /retrofit is a good alternative.

any focus upgrade stock ICE? it;s sound really make me want to turn off the HU
