Well I was out and about today and I decided just to take some pics saying I don't get to many days off.

 

Nice pictures, what's with that bit of water on the road?

 

Bloody good cars the mk1 focus. Get it out of that river or it will start to rust lol.

 

This my 2nd one would like to do some upgrades but as it's only a 1.8 zetec I think i'd be better buying a ST170. I've been watching your thread Glenn on yours and youv'e done a cracking job so far.

 

Was it foggy..

 

Best all round car ever me (bold statement I know)


I had a 170 and tbh your better off getting a 2.0 ghia if you can. I bought a 170 sold it within 2 months. My mate who I sold it to also wants rid of it

 

Nice car, I do like the mk1 focus.

 

amazingly the name for a road going through shallow water like that is called a Ford!

 

Quite funny, didn't know that. Never to old to learn.

 

Most end up in brooks and fords when using sat-nav lol, clean looking focus though


your 170 was prob a shitter then tbh as theres no comparison between a spot on running 170 and a 2.0 ghia

 

Still amazes me how well these things drive, such cracking cars. Looks a tidy one. Would look spot-on with the sill covers and lower rear bumper in silver.

 

She is a tidy we car for being a 1999, would love to get collection bumpers and skirts for her sometime or at the very least maybe a ST170 kit.

 

Well my Focus has been declared off the road for the winter after doing 3000 miles, now to pick up some upgrades for her in the new year and hopefully try to get a collection front bumper.

 

Collection bumpers do look good on the focus, keep us updates with all your mods

 

Some new pics with freshly refurbed wheels

 

Looks good. The early mk1 is getting rare now!

 

I agree Richie. As usual with fords the rust has took over them.

When the focus first come out i thought what have ford done. Now i think there one of the best cars ford have made. Theres 2 focus.es in my household.

 

I got a focus a few years back that was in mechanically rough condition, fixed most of it but it takes some abuse.

Laid it up for a couple years and its now back on the road, its rough in the paintwork/dings department but its just a daily shitter for when I feel like driving it.
