2005 Ford Focus ZX5 SES 2.0L Duratech
Summary:
It's a good car
Faults:
I changed the O2 sensor at 110 000km.
I changed the brake at 150 000km.
I repaired the exhaust at 160 000km.
General Comments:
I purchased this car 3 years ago, and for the price it's a really good deal. The ride is really good with a ZX5, and the seats are better than a cheap version of the Focus.
The viability after 3 years is great. I've only got 2 reproaches. A car of this size could be more economic in fuel - approximately 8.0L by 100km highway (60%) city (40%) combined. Also the car could be better soundproofed.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I've got an '09 SEL and it is an automatic. I routinely get into the mid 30's for mileage with mostly around town use. What did you not like about the AT? Did it fail?
