FORD FOCUS (1998-05) 3DR HATCHBACK 2.0 130 ZETEC REV 01

Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks

The FORD FOCUS (1998-05) 3DR HATCHBACK 2.0 130 ZETEC REV 01 is a three-door family hatchback from Ford’s first-generation range. A mainstream used-car choice, it rivals the Volkswagen Golf and Vauxhall Astra, with distinctive styling and lively handling that helped make the Focus a notable alternative to conventional small family cars. The 2.0-litre, 130 bhp Zetec provides brisker performance than basic hatchbacks and suits commuters, couples and drivers who enjoy an involving drive. Its compact size helps with town parking and errands, while the useful boot adds everyday practicality. However, the three-door body makes rear-seat access less convenient for families with young children. mycarcheck.com data includes 110 checks across 72 VINs: average recorded mileage is 132,000 miles, annual mileage 4,000, and 4.4 previous keepers. The average private-sale valuation is £300. These are indicators, not a valuation of every car; condition and history deserve attention when buying this ageing Ford Focus.
