2009 Ford Focus
This is the second 2009 Ford focus SE that I’ve owned. The first one had 147,000 miles on it with nothing needed but regular items. Tires, battery, regular oil changes at 5000 mile intervals and never used any oil between changes. If I kept my foot out of it, I got 38 to 41 miles mpg, if I pushed it I still got 35 at 80 mph. This one has 79,000 miles on it and I have not done anything but tires. It’s nearly as clean as off the showroom floor, as I keep my cars clean. I am very happy with this car. Depreciation is so low now, insurance is low, no payments with interest, make this an exceptionally cheap car to own. Reability has been second to none for me. Highly recommended but very hard to find a nice one with a regular maintenance performed and no rust. You can’t go wrong with the value of this car, great commuter car or for a new teenage driver. It’s rated safe. It’s also very comfortable to drive for a whole day.

Amazon little sleeper car
I have two of these little cars a 2008 Ford Focus SeS and a 2009 Ford Focus SE and I have never had any issues with either car besides the basic maintenance, they both have high mileage on the odometer and still they get amazing fuel mileage, granted it's not a luxury car and it's not a race car but not a Toyota Corolla slow either, my only Gripe is the way Ford designed the rear drum brakes with the wheel bearing pressed in the hub, there are ways around that especially if you're mechanically knowledgeable by doing a disc break conversion it's easy and allows a lot better stopping distance, both of my cars still look and run like new and they are extremely cheap to maintain. If they weren't good cars I wouldn't own two of them lol I still get compliments on both cars , tires are cheap, maintenance is cheap , they are comfortable and reliable to drive and they handle like a sports car and I know without a doubt that whenever I turn the key it'll start and get me where I need to go, I live in upstate NY where there is snow a lot and they both handle great with all season tires . Overall I definitely recommend a Ford Focus between the years 2008 - 2011 , I would stay very far away from the 2012 - 2016 model years because of the TCM and transmission issues. If you want reliability and comfort and a cheap car that will last as long as a Toyota buy this car .

I had the pleasure of working with Lee and he helped me
I had the pleasure of working with Lee and he helped me find my beautiful 2011 Acura! He was very very polite and was able to work with my budget. I also was able to trade in my Honda pilot which made the price of Acura go down, which was such a blessing. Lee also was able to work with me even though I had a hard time locating my registration papers. They were very flexible on that and quickly found multiple options for me to locate my registration papers again. I was able to take the car home same day, which was a huge blessing! Especially because I’m a caregiver and my clients and I rely on transportation.The staff was amazing very welcoming and I will absolutely be coming back if I ever need another car! Five stars all around I definitely recommend! Best play car dealership in town!
Great little car
I've owned 2 Focuses, and I was imposed with both of them. The 2009 wad bought used to replace the older one when we handed it down to our son. I bought this car while I was delivering pizza for a second job, while also traveling 300 miles round trip per week to help take care of my elderly mother in another city. In 5 years I never had any trouble with it. The only reason I got rid of it was because I needed a good trade in to replace our old van that was slowly dying, and I was tired of having 3 cars with only 2 drivers in the house. The Sync system is probably my favorite feature of this car, and the thing that I miss the most. I was typically getting 30-34 mpg, even delivering pizza. Great little car.

Satisfied Customer
I was helping my son find a used Truck and everyone at Berkeley Ford were nice, friendly, and helpful. Highly recommend!
So far so good
I bought this car four years ago in a pinch when we sold our van. I needed a economical, reliable vehicle and it has served it's purpose. It gets great gas mileage (30-32 in town) is peppy when you need it and thus far has been reliable. I've heard from people in the car business that this particular style of Focus were very good cars.

I have bought two cars from Legacy within the last year, & if at all possible, I will continue to make all my vehicle purchases through them. Buying a vehicle can be a stressful process, & both my experiences with them have been quite the opposite! No pressure, extremely knowledgeable, helpful, & the best customer service! The owner Jay, & the rest of Legacy’s staff are top notch! I highly recommend checking them out if you are in the market to buy a vehicle! Thank you Legacy Auto Sales!

Great Honest Dealership
Fantastic experience. Luis did a fantastic job showing me the car I was interested In. If your looking for a hassle-free honest locally owned dealership this is for you. I was able to get my new car at a good price and it runs like a dream. My prior car needed some work due to the door being dented In. They offered me a really fair trade-in price. I didn't feel like they were trying to upsell me and they felt like honest friends to me. I will be continuing to use Jon and son's auto sales for future cars.
