1999 Ford Focus Zetec 3 door review from UK and Ireland
"Fast and furious"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had a call back for the electrics, nothing wrong with mine till it came out of the garage, the exhaust rattles and the engine was lumpy under acceleration.
Fixed after 8 trips back to the garage in Darlington, make your own minds up what garage.
I had 2 new tyres on the front, apart from that nothing.
General comments?
I love the car, it looks good and drives even better. The fuel consumption is excellent and it holds the road like snot down a pensioner's nose.
We will be getting a Ford Puma 1.7 next, didn't like Fords till now, we have had most makes of car and Ford are OK.
