Hi, I was thinking about lowering my Ford Focus 1.8 TDCi Sport. If I get my local dealer to fit how much will it cost it total approx? 1358918 Eibach All Diesel Engines ( not suitalble for use with self levelling suspension ) £134.17 Will I need to tell my insurance company with it being a Ford mod? Regards Barry

Hi, Will take it into the dealer next week and see what they say. If I look at it from the join at eye level its still miles out. I just cannot be bothered with arguements at the minute, so I hope they but it right for me. Does anyone know how to work out the build date, and which factory it was made in? Apart from the paint match the car is lovely. After only 300 miles I am getting 52mpg...Hopefully that will improve even more. Regards Baz

Hi, Its a £400 option on a new Focus. I got one in my Focus, and its a great CD player. I have seen them make £250 on Ebay. However I believe you need to get Ford to match the radio to the car, otherwise it doesnot work correctly. I am sure the Clock doesnot show. It also needs a funny shaped removal tool. regards Baz

Hi, I had a 206 in Moonstone... Nearly same colour and that matched perfect... Its the most expensive new car I have ever bought, and this one is the only one where I feel I have been had! Baz

Hi, I just cannot make up my mind. Some days it looks worse than others. If I look at it from some angles the paint match looks perfect. and Does this look like an acceptable paint match in Tonic? Best Regards Baz

Hi, I have just bought a Sport in Tonic. The front bumper is an eye sore but the rear bumper is a better match. I spotted it when I picked the car up, but looking at others on the forecourt it didnot look so bad. I have had it 8 days now, and everytime I look at it I feel sick as it stands out so much. I have spend a lot of hard earned money on it (Spend threre years working and saving for this) and really believe I deserve better quality. Do people think I could get it corrected still? Regards Baz

Hi, Just been on to my dealer £40 plus VAT for the key and for it to be cut. Then you need to get it programmed by service. Regards Barry

Are These mark 2 prices?

Hi, Anyone know how much a second remote would cost? regards Baz

Hi, Remember to tell your insurance company. If he decides it was your fault 2 years down the line and tries to claim compo your insurance company wont help. Someone ran into the side of my dads car when he was parked up. A policeman saw it happen and he still had problems for years. Hopefully everything will turn out okay... Regards Baz

Hi, In the new Ford Focus brochure it says the mini spare wheel is to be replaced with a tyre inflator kit for the ST. How long before the standard focuses go the same way. I just wouldnot feel comfortable driving without a spare. Last time I had a tyre wall break up and it came of the rim on one edge. I dont believe the tyre inflator kit would have rescued me. Baz

Hi, I know you can on second hand cars, but dealer says no on new..... Regards Baz

Hi, Can You extend the warranties on Fords past 3 years or 60k if you buy new? My fiesta is on 58k and I wanted to keep my New Focus for 4- 5 years. Local dealer says no for business use. What about private use? Best regards Barry

Hi, All Zetecs are 110 Models....Only on lower spec is the 90 normally sold. I would double check the log book anyway incase. Very Nice to drive and I am sure you will like it. I couldnot believe now smooth they are. Regards Barry

Hi, In Ford Mays prices it shows the Sport as no Alarm...Except for the 1.8TDCI. Will find out one way or another soon! regards Baz

Hi, As well as the connection pack it shows the 1.8 TDCi fitted with an alarm. Can anyone confirm if the Sport has these two things?. I am not sure if they have changed the spec of the Sport recently. My cars ready, but I dont want to take delivery until Mid June so I can try and flog my p/x for more. regards Barry

Hi, Yes its Good. What you will find is the colour you are after is not available unless it has the 6 CD Sony unit instead (maybe lucky with Black). This adds £400 on the price, but you should be able to haggle a little bit. I got £40 off and a free service as I dont use the CD player. Just got my Reg number today!! Regards Baz

Hi, Its in the Ford Focus Retail price list dated 18 May. 25000 nectar points if contracted and registered 02 May and 30 June. Regards Baz

Hi, Mines a private sale. Nothing lost by asking however. Regards Barry

Hi, Remember to claim the nectar points!!!. I was surprised to learn I get 25000 points. Worth of £200 in Adams on baby clothes. Baz

Hi, I have ordered the 1.8 with the 6 disc. I managed to get a free service of them so I feel better. Have given myself a few weeks to try and get rid of my p/x before i take delivery... Thanks everyone... Regards Baz

Can I Bump it?

Hi, Could the car be a Zetec 1.6 110 instead of the 1.6 Style?. I Think the Style has black rear Windows? Glad you like it.... Regards Baz

Hi, Does anyone know if Dealer has quoted price and I have paid deposit. Will they have to stick to the price, even if the dealer loses the Ford bonus on it if its registered in July? Has anyone got a photo of the Sony CD? Regards Barry

Only thing the dealer will offer is a different colour. Wife has heart set on Tonic but... Regards Barry
