Default New (to me) Focus

I don't know how many saw my ST24 in the project section, but due to the fact that it kept throwing up issue after issue I served it on to a young lad who is doing a mechanics course and wanted a project. To replace it, I bought a much newer and hopefully much easier to maintain Focus. I have been truly bitten by the Ford bug so it seemed natural to get another car with the blue oval. Anyway, here it is in all its glory.

It is a 1.8 Zetec with 124k on the clock, with full service history, and one previous owner. I am intending to keep it mainly standard at the moment, but who knows what the future may bring...
I will post more photos up as and when, I am sure most people have seen these on the road so there will be nothing new to see!

Factory Bluetooth and dab are easy to do on these. If yours has the loom in for the telephone it will save you a load of money for a patch loom kit (approx Ł120-150 from ford) The dab aerial is around Ł60 for the lot.

It is a good car, it has a couple of small foibles but most used cars do. It drives beautifully, and I would recommend. It has the CD6000 head unit in currently, how would I find out if it had the right loom?
I was looking originally at the pre-facelift but most were starting to rust on the front wings so laid a bit more down for this one.

There will be a plug near the interior light for the mic and one above the glove box lid tapped to the crash bar for the Nokia bt box.
If you get the Sony dab radio from a late ST or titanium 95% of them will have the software to use the Bluetooth.
