Why should i spend £6000 on a ford
I Love Fords, I had first car as 1.1 fiesta and put xr2i kit and seats etc never got to greasy through and now i have a 02 focus 1.8 z, heated leather seats and tints and a sound system and a few bits.
But i fed up with the pace of the car at top end also i had the fault with the speedo which i keep fighting with ford wakefield and york (might hav result of going postal) and i need some more power but nothing to kill me now please (work run)
SOOOO i want to up grade but is it a ford or do i go to the darkside jap or germ - help help
i got £2500 cash and i guess i might get £3300 for the focus or something,
What would you do ??????????

If I had my time again mate i'd buy an Evo or a Skyline GTR over any fords! 
You'd be able to pic up a nice Evo 4 or 5 for that kind of money, or you could even get a Skyline R32 GTR 2.6 Twin Turbo!
Something i'm seriously considering...

I have a Ford Focus 1.8 Zetec (sig pic). Its my second car but thsi is the first car that's properly mine (my first was a shed and is my dad's daily hack). I'm only 18 so I'm pretty please with it right now but honestly, its not really worth trying to get a lot of power out of it.
To be honest with you, for the money you've got to spend, getting high power jap is going to be a bit hit and miss and you could end up with a right old dog and as a daily hack it wouldnt be ideal. You could probably get a nice BMW E36/E46 325i or 328i which would be real smooth and poky as well.

Why would you end with a dog through going Jap? It's bull...
Nothing wrong with a high powered car for everyday use, if they are properly looked after they are fine and fun everyday!
Just admit it you love the Ford.
