Default Just got myself a focus zetec 1.6

Well I've finally got a ford, well not quite as I have to wait until tomorrow, traded in my micra 1.0 for a y reg focus zetec 1.6 on a y plate, and only costs me £24 more to insure.

I'm new to driving fords but have always loved them when I was younger!!

Very impressed so far and only had it two days, my only gripe is going from a cd player back to cassette but I managed to get a cd player so ripping that out at the weekend.

Very good driver and quick, never realised I was doing 50 in a 30 only 10 minutes after getting it!!!

aye it's a cracking engine, only problem I have with mine is the VSS sensor sometimes makes the speedo drop to zero when I'm doing 30mph, but still a cracking car.
