Rinsing Focus MK1 Facebook Adverts! 

I'm not going to lie, I've been contemplating getting rid of mine and getting a mk2 or early 3 even though I'm not a fan of the ecoboom. However.... Mine has 78k miles on it, to some it can be considered as poor body work due to scrapes, scratches and dents, 1 big dent and about 4 small. But something in me is saying no, something is saying bodywork, cambelt, battery and some touch up and it can be considered as a pride and joy again. Mine ain't as rusty as some of these rusty ones you've shown today. Interesting episode pal. Would love to hear your thoughts on it.

Another great video. I always avoid Facebook marketplace like the plague. Definitely dodgy ads there especially the 2019 focus

In Sweden most of the later MK1s and basically all of the MK2s are Flexifuel (Petrol/E85) models. This exploits a reduction to tax for environmentally friendly vehicles although very few ever uses E85 in their Focus. I have even seen one with a green "Focus Flexifuel" decal on the front doors which probably some demonstrators got. Did you get those in the UK?

That 2019 car its either a typo on the price maybe meant to type 13k or a scam

The mk1 now is at the stage as in the year 2 000 i was buying mk3 escorts for 250 ish quid. Tou couldn't get a mk 3 now for under 5 k in decent condition .😮

I've noticed the really good examples are now £2500 plus on auto trader. Damn maybe your predictions may happen sooner than we thought. Big shame that people neglect them. I had my thermostat and the housing replaced the other day, bad coolant leak happened. Oh and got the air con regassed, so glad I got it done, it helps a lot in the heat.

good vid

Would be very careful when buying desirable modern cars as a lot of them are being clocked between mots, without no way to tell apart fron general wear on interior may look more used than the milage would suggest plus the price is always lower than it should be. Thats not to say all bargains have been clocked, just that all clocked cars are priced cheaper than expected. Also any vehicle with a digital millage can be clocked through obd port without no signs of being clocked, be carefull people as scams are quite popular unfortunatly

Like I said always mk1 in two years will be gone from streets. Now time that rusting and people don't want do anything and after two years next batch will be gone from people who tried do something about rust. After that there will be almost only good examples left

Laugh! For most on your assessments. :)

Blocking the registration is VITAL when selling a car. The chance of joe public in your area cloning your vehicle. However people online can easily find your car and colour by searching it. Id love to discuss my story with you give me a message. As indeed have been a victim.
