Is a 2000 Ford Focus a good car?
I'm thinking of buying one for my niece. She needs an economy car to drive to and from college next August. About a 90 mile round trip twice a week. The car has only 75000 miles and runs and drives very nice. Asking 3 for it so it seems like a good deal. Its a little rough on the outside but nothing serious. Most everything else for sale in my area has close to 200000 miles and are usually priced well over book value. The CarFax on it checked out perfect and its a one owner car.
Apparently, Andres, the Tech in training, can't capitalize the name of Ford nor punctuate sentences correctly. I have a Ford product, a 2008 Mercury Mariner and it is an excellent car. The Ford Focus has an excellent reputation. However, this is a 15 year old car. It is best to have a mechanic do a complete inspection, specially as to the drive train. There could be services not done such as timing belt, water pump, coolant service, brakes and other scheduled services.
Ford= First On Race Day. Ok now we have the Acronyms out of the way. Focus is a very well regarded car. Good mileage, safety, reputation etc. Car Fax is good but as every experienced buyer will say. "Get it checked out by a qualified mechanic you hire". Also Honda,(Hell Of A Good Auto) or a Mazda for a good commuter.
No its a ford
I think you choose is good
- What is a good car that can hold 6-8 people and had good gas milage? I don't want a minivan. Right now I have a ford freestyle. I'm looking for under $5,000 and can get around to 40 miles per gallon
- Should I buy a 2000 Ford Focus SE as spare car? Btw I already brought a 2017 Honda Civic on Dec 2016, I want to buy this but just only as spare car. I have a new friend on facebook selling his 180k $900 Ford and my uncle will repair and replace all the parts to run as new.
- Is a Ford Focus a good first car? It would be a new 2014 titanium. Our family friend works for a dealer and could get us a great deal on one.
- Is a Ford Focus a good first car? - 1 I'm going to college in a couple months and my parents got me a 2013 SE Focus automatic. Is it a good car? Reliable? Safe? Should I expect to pay high insurance? I think the car still has an original warranty if I'm not mistaken.
