Confession time, I've recently purchased a 51 plate 1600 focus estate. 16700 miles on the clock with a slightly modified front end hence cat c.
Never intended on buying one, just noticed it at our local salvage yard and for the money I've had to buy it.
Its a ideal daily, although underpowered! Unfortunately the power plant will stay just because of it's stupidly low mileage.
I've panelled the front end back up mega cheap via eBay just in the process of arranging it to go in for paint, while in it's having other bits sorted so it's minty mint. sorry can't help myself.
I've mot'ed it, vic checked it, taxed it and now it's in daily use.

Reason for this thread is I'm just after inspiration, part of me wants to keep it standard as I don't wanna worry about another car, were down to the zt powered Orion and the misses's mint A3 turbo.
But do I mod the focus? Would be kept simple, just clean and slammed on the comp TH's off my old red Orion? 16 x 8's
The focus wants tires, the comps have new tires, springs cost less than tires.
