The FORD FOCUS (2004-08) 5DR ESTATE 1.6 100 LX is a compact family estate: a five-door Focus with useful extra room for luggage, shopping and everyday essentials. It sits in the practical, affordable end of the UK used-car market, offering more carrying space than the familiar Focus hatchback without the size of a large estate. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 299 look-ups covering 178 distinct VINs for this model. In those checks, the average private-sale valuation was £600, average recorded mileage was 115,000 miles, and cars had about 3.7 previous keepers; observed annual mileage averaged 8,000 miles. These figures describe checked examples, not every car, so condition and service history matter. The 1.6-litre petrol suits families, commuters and budget-conscious drivers wanting everyday transport. Its balanced ride and approachable handling helped the Focus stand out against estate rivals such as the Vauxhall Astra and Volkswagen Golf. The LX is a sensible, no-fuss choice.
