Great budget car that gets awesome mpg!
I purchased this car used in 2015 or so. Drove it for a few years and sold it when I got a truck...fast forward to 2022 and gas prices are sky high so when I had the opportunity to buy it back for what I sold it for, I jumped on it. It's got dings and dents and wear, but it gets me from point a to point b and gets me between 28 and 45mpg depending on how I drive it! I used to get over 40mpg driving from Indiana down south with it. It has needed very little mantainence other than tires and oil changes. I've replaced the alternator once and it's due for an idler pulley and tie rod end links, but these are to be expected at 173,000 miles. They aren't power houses, but enough power to zip through daily traffic without danger. I'm not especially easy on it either...they have no issue shifting at 6500rpm (keeps the carbon blown out.) As a side note: these were the first run of the 2.0 ztech with a timing chain vs the earlier timing belts... If you can find a rust free one that's been maintained, you can drive the wheels off of it and it will save you money on gas!

Awesome service , had the car I wanted and made the process easy for my kids first car . Definitely going back.
Best 500 dollar car in Pennsylvania!
Very good value. I would recommend this car to my family or friends. It is reliable and economical and feels good on the back roads.

Compact utilitarian transportation
I bought this car new in 2007, and it was the first year of this design. At the time it fit my needs as a commuting teacher, wife and mom to a teenager and a toddler. Now it still meets the needs. The cabin is quiet and the ride is smooth for its size. It handles well and has required minimal maintenance beyond the basics. I was offered $500 for a trade in, and chose to drive it a little longer at 147,000 miles and counting. It has transported sports gear, and carried camping gear to remote campgrounds. It took a road trip from Connecticut to DC and back but is mostly for local errands and brief highway trips for appointments. No complaints, but it’s no luxury vehicle or SUV, just a compact sedan for basic needs. We now have a 100 pound dog who fits fine in the backseat.

Bought brand new July 2007, 235K and going!!!
The 2008 Ford Focus SE, Vapor Grey with highest trim level, chrome package. It was my very 1st brand new car that i purchased back in July 2007 and have driven it every day since. Myself and my husband drive it (hes a 6'2" guy, so as far as comfort, its a little snug for him, but fine for me at 5'7") Updated for a 2008 dated vehicle, and is very spacious for a compact car. (Easily fits 2 XL suitcases and carry-ons for our airport trips, or large fishing cooler in the trunk for weekend getaways.) Its been up and down the entire east coast for our road trips, family holiday visits and a lot of local NJ town miles as well. Its 2020 now, and that thing has been AMAZING on average MPG (currently at 35, mixed highway/town miles) as well as longevity!!! Runs solid, basic maintenance like oil changes, tires, light bulbs, fuses and such. As of today, she just hit 235,000 MILES!!! Could NOT have asked for a better vehicle!!!

I had a good experience with Marty's Auto Sales.
I had a good experience with Marty's Auto Sales. Barry was great to deal with. We were looking for a vehicle for our 16 yr. Old son. Barry was very respectful and courteous to all of us. He showed us the vehicle, then gave us time to thoroughly look it over. He checked in, but was not pushy in any way. He asked us if we would like a test drive, and when we returned he asked for our business. I will shop there again when the situation arises. I recommend them. I feel that we got a quality vehicle at a good price.
