The FORD FOCUS (1998-05) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.8 GHIA REV 01 is a five-door family hatchback from a model that helped set the standard for everyday cars in Britain. It sits in the popular small-family-car class, offering easier access and more carrying space than a city car, while remaining less bulky than an SUV. On mycarcheck.com, this exact version has prompted 436 checks covering 266 distinct VINs, a substantial sample of buyer interest. Checks indicate an average private-sale valuation of £400 and average recorded mileage of 92,000 miles; average annual mileage is 5,000.
