LV Focus LX

[pundit]

Just picked up a little LV focus last week, 09 model with 135k on it.


What are the common things that I need to keep a eye out for on them and what commonly lets go? Spots for rust?



for 6k drive away from a dealer I thought it was a pretty decent deal, just needs a new lower grille and it'll be apples. Goes into Tonkins car audio for a reverse cam in the rear view mirror, then thats probably about all aside from regular servicing. Did think about upgrading the stereo but I'll probably just re route the aux cord from the glove box to where the cig lighter is more like where falcons have it.

Still quite a smart looking hatch for their time, and the blue really suits it too

check for water leaks from the heater core tank esay as to crck especially if the heater hose is replaced roughly due to the angle of things. if it leaks water will be on inside cabin floor

Yeh I'm a massive fan of the colour, Ocean blue I think it's called. Just got it back from the caryard after getting a stone tray fitted and replacement guard liner on the passenger side..


So far for the missus it's proving to be a much better car for her in the term of size and fuel economy than her BA XR6 was. . And well hell I actually don't mind driving it either.
