Hello all
First post so here goes.
We are thinking of buying a 2012 Focus 1.6 125 Zetec Powershift, high mileage as looks like Ford buy back lease car but Warranty until June 2015. We have previously owned a 2000 year auto Focus and found it to be a very reliable car but have no other Ford experience since 2004.
Would be grateful for any obvious faults to look out for, we are only low mileage users, 3000 local miles per year, so a diesel, which is normally my first choice as a retired HGV mechanic, not an option with the DPF problems associated with low mileage and short journeys.
Many thanks for reading
Nick
