MK2 keys with the TI RFID are not user programmable.

Bald people should not get sunroofs.

Young children in car seats have an unfortunate tendency to throw up unexpectedly. This is normal. You may want to choose a suitable upholstery option.

Well, youre certainly finding some interesting stuff. I guess that LHD and RHD lamps are different. His Deutsch is very idiomatic, so that may account for the poor translation. He is just giving his selling pitch, standard German guarantee bumpf and some vague contact details.

I disagree with other posters. 5 doors are mandatory for kids. They get older and more truculent, and it is easier to frogmarch them in through a rear car door entrance. My son is 29, has his own RS, and is still trouble.

I agree badge quality is poor. Have had to replace rear one...water entered it. Replacement badges have lots of scratching. Front one may be integral with grille...

I drive mine carefully at low revs for 150 000 miles or 20 years, whichever comes first. Reason: low total cost of ownership.

C214 is the mk1 Focus

You can buy them from Germany now - the guy says so. They seem rather cheap...cheaper than OEM lights, and therefore could be naff. And they are truly ugly IMHO. Would go nicely with Dub PimpStar wheels.

AFAIK the engines called Duratec in the C307 Focus are all Zetec derivatives. Duratec is only used as a branding exercise. Wikipedia has very informative entries on Ford Engines worldwide. To find my Duratec VCT was in fact a Zetec-SE annoyed me, even though it is an excellent engine. There may be a Trade Descriptions issue here.

Thanks. Very helpful. I'll start slimming now to change the pollen filter in August.

I thought it was every major and minor service. Now I am being told differently. What is the answer?

Rallye Sports comment about servibing schedules interests me. When I got a printout of major and minor service items last August, the pollen filter was in both. Has this changed? I have now had a chance to look in the car in good light and can see the tiny filter door. Anyone with a bit of girth will never be able to wedge themselves in a position to change the filter.

Cannot find piollen filter housing. Is its cover part of the central console? I see a possibility there.
