I had the titanium version of this a few years ago. Such good value and cheap to run. I once managed to achieve 83mpg from Cheltenham to Birmingham on mostly motorways. Incredible fuel economy and comfortable. I’m in the market for a back up car as my daily drive is a van. Might get one of these again.

I had the exact model company car where I worked, an 08 year new. I tried it out on the A50 just for fun and I managed to get over 70 mpg, very reliable the only fault I had was as it was new the stitching on the steering wheel was scratching my hand. I'm looking to buy another now.

@grahamd4764 5 лет назад

I came across this model recently at one of my local dealers. I noticed it had the upgraded seats that are usually found in the titanium versions. I'm guessing they are quite rare in any Zetec model. I am actually torn between the Zetec s and the Titanium because the latter has all the extra toys in the cabin. Have to decide what's important to me.

@BarrieCrampton 5 лет назад

no i think that those seats were standard on the Zetec

@grahamd4764 5 лет назад

Barry I owned a 1.8 Zetec back in 2010 with the same seats as the one in your video. In my experience they seem to be the standard in Zetecs and the S model- in this particular shape anyway. However I had not come across one with titanium seats before. I'm guessing there are more around but I'm sure they are not as prevalent as the tic tock grey and black seats that seem to be the standard ones in this model.

@theafricandesi368 6 лет назад

Fantastic video Barrie. Quick question: I'm thinking of purchasing this model Ford Focus but an automatic version. What are your thoughts on the automatic version and is it much less economical than the manual?

@BarrieCrampton 6 лет назад

Personally I would go for an automatic, but i am very lazy :-) Autos are great these days, think the fuel economy will be about the same,

@BarrieCrampton 6 лет назад

Oh, and thanks for the kind comment, glad you liked the video

@theafricandesi368 6 лет назад

Barrie Crampton Thank you so much. Appreciate your advice. I recommend your videos to my friends who also thoroughly enjoy these test drives. Not many garages would make such an effort, especially in inclement weather conditions. It is very commendable. :)

@dezzie9771 5 лет назад

Barrie Crampton do you recommend anywhere? Thank for for the fast reply

@BarrieCrampton 5 лет назад

xHayes try compare the market but make sure you put one of your parents down as a named driver as this usually decreases your premium, also there are a few insurance companies that you have a black box fitted in the car, these can be even cheaper

@dezzie9771 5 лет назад

Barrie Crampton just got several quotes of £1,300 to £1,400 with a black box, that’s ideal👍🏽

@vrglcom 4 года назад

Looking to buy a 09 plate 1.6 tdci with 89k miles on clock. Would I have any issues with DPF filters and turbo? Apparently really common fault and very expensive to repair. Just wondering what red flags to look out for on this. I do about 8-10k miles a year by the way. Mostly town driving with occasional carriageway/motorway.

@BarrieCrampton 4 года назад

you need to be doing at least 1 journey of 25 to 50 miles every 14 days and shouldn't think you would have dpf problems, you can also buy additives which help keep the system clean. We have had 1 turbo problem and we have sold a lot of Fords so its like anything else people only complain about the bad things so you think they are more common than they actually are, also parts for Fords are very reasonable so won't cost a fortune to repair

@vrglcom 4 года назад

@Barrie Crampton Thats great info, thanks for quick response. Very helpful 👍 Update: The year of car is actually a 08 plate not 09. Has 89k miles on clock. Is that good? The garage is asking for £1850 and will accept part exchange also. The car looks very clean immaculate.

@BarrieCrampton 4 года назад

ALNERO sounds ok, just look at the service and mot history, also if it has any invoices with it, have a look whats been reported

@@BarrieCrampton Fair enough, you learned to drive that way, and it suits you now, but it is really unsafe and difficult.

Not to mention that you have so less control over steering wheel as you are further from it...
