I've been looking for a 1.8zetec/duratec for someone, found a few at motorpoint http://www.motorpoint.co.uk/vehicle_det ... icle=52707 just over £10k, 54plate, 900miles on the clock all the info of the diff versions are on the ford website www.ford.co.uk Key features (additional to the LX) * Electrically-operated and heated door mirrors with body colour housings * Body colour door hatches * Driver's armrest * Leather-trimmed steering wheel * Comfort Seat System incorporating three 40/20/40 split-fold rear seats, individual tip, tumble and remove facility &

this is worrying * * * *, I've been advising someone to get a derv CMAX over a 1.8 petrol...has anybody got anymore info on this fault!? :?

Definitely... but what's the clutch rated to, will it slip!?

That's good news, doesn't sound like anyone has had this cutting out problem then, which can only be a good thing :D

Thanks for the responses guys, I'm sourcing this info for someone else, who is in the market for a 1.8 zetec - have found one at Motorpoint for a shade over £10k http://www.motorpoint.co.uk/vehicle_det ... icle=52707 Is that a good deal? 8)

I've read that the diesels have a problem with cutting out, kind of like the MKI focus when iit first came out - is this true!? :shock: IS this a problem across the range or just the diesels, any experiences/info would be appreciated 8)

:shock: That's VAG/Revo figures, fantastic! I know someon who is thinking of a C-MAX this news will be quickly passed on............

You also need to drive more than 15k a year before you reep the benefits

what's with the side repeater AND the wingmirror indicator?

cool - what did u opt for mate?

I would opt for the 2.0, isn't it about ~£500 more and so much more powerful

Not everyone wants a smelly, noisy diesel in their life. :lol: Petrol has - Better handling (lighter front end) - better braking (lighter car) - nicer engine note - quicker off the line - more of a drivers car as well as all the other stuff mentioned above (price, servicing, image)....... each their own and all that.

The petty is also cheaper to start with, we've had this convo before - the diesel is cost effective for peeps who drive more than ~15k a year.

There is no doubting Black is the best colour when clean, no other colour can match the striking looks of a black motor when fully polished up... the downside is the constant cleaning that is required, lol... worth it IMO :D

Definitely Panther black, without a shadow is the best colour when clean :wink:

I think it is a feature on the Sport model upwards (sport, zetec, ghia, titanuim); as the only optional extra seems to be Xenons..

:shock: :lol: Strange, simple ideas first ---- Does the c-max have a boot release on the fob? Could you have accidentally caught that with other keys whilst turning it over...

Oooooooooonly in America! :lol:

:sleeping: ...sorry nodded off there for a sec - your car is looking mint; erm... that's bout it.

Do you know if it has been revised from the MKI or not?

I should have been more specific, I meant what type of gearbox, for example IB5, MTX...

Does anyone know what gearbox is fitted in the MKII 2.0 Petrol fOCUS?

2.0 Black - 3 door - colour coded - 18s - i wud take it

can u keep sending them back until u get a mkII? :lol:
