Great little car
This is the second Focus that I have owned. She was a hand me down from my parents, who owned her since 2009. It was primarily used by as the "kid car". She sat for almost two years before I got her,, so she has a bit of rust now from the north-east winters. However, she is still going strong despite being over a decade old at this point. The only major thing wrong with her is the rust, but her engine and transmission are just fine. The only thing I would say is that if you drive in snow, you have to splurge and get snow tires. Other than that great on gas and has never broken down despite being rather elderly at this point.
Worst purchase of my life
I hate it since the transmission blew with only 48000 miles! I purchased this piece of junk with only eight miles on odometer. It was maintained properly so it would last for several years but due to cost of towing, rental cars, mechanics at ford dealership & replace transmission, it destroyed my credit & due to disabled with MS, has left me stuck with an unreliable piece of junk that I can’t be trusted to go on any trip out of my town!
Reliable car for my needs
This vehicle is what I need to satisfy my needs. Great buy for the money . Very well maintained, interior was surprisingly very clean , upholstery no food or tears . Carpet was not worn .
