2000 Ford Focus LX Reviews

Theres nothing i can say about this car that i hate, its really good overall, i bought it for room, as my children are in car seats, and they take up alot of room in the back, and with car seats in it gives plenty of leg room, the car is cheap on parts, cheap to run, and you get really good performance and mileage out of it the only reason im changing is coz i would likw something newer.
performance - the car does everything i want, theres plenty of power when i need it, the braking is excellent, and the handling is great
build quality - Ive a confession to make, ive had to do no repairs in over a year, tyres, exhaust are all A1 condition, its regularly serviced by the dealer, and they mention straight away if anything needs replacing and it hasnt, as i use this car with my family, i want everything perfect.
Appearance - As the car is nearly 8 year old, it looks abit dated compared to todays cars, hence why im upgrading, the interior is great, all the gadgets are easily accessible,
cost of ownership - CHEAP

bought with 36K have put almost 30 k on it since
2004, biggest things were ignition needed to be
replaced and the AC needs fixing.

everything else is mediocre but it gets me places
and
is reliable

tremendous amount of body roll in corners as there
is no rear sway bar.

Gas milage tends to be near 28 but can easily drop
to 22 when doing spirited city driving

No ABS is fun when you want to have fun but not
good when you lock up tires during hard braking

Generally happy with this vehicle

i love this car, it has great gas milage and is reliable. But i would recommend a Zx3. The Z's have 20 more horses and can be customized easier

hmmmm, its a ford drove it for 2 years. and it was 2 yrs to long
