The FORD FOCUS C-MAX (2004-07) 5DR MPV 1.6 TDCI DPF 110 ZETEC CVT AUTO is a compact five-door people carrier, offering a taller, more flexible alternative to a family hatchback. In the UK used-car market it sits among affordable older MPVs, competing with the Renault Scenic, Vauxhall Zafira and Volkswagen Touran. Mycarcheck.com activity records 101 look-ups covering 17 different VINs, giving a useful snapshot rather than a huge market-wide sample. Checks show an average private-sale value of £1,000, typical recorded mileage of 105,000 miles and around 4,000 miles driven yearly; owners averaged 5.4 previous keepers. Its diesel engine and spacious cabin suit family errands, commuting and longer journeys, while the Focus-based design feels more car-like than bulkier people carriers. The 1.6 TDCi Zetec is a sensible used choice for budget-minded households needing flexibility; check service history and emissions equipment, especially if making frequent short trips.
