The FORD FOCUS (2007-11) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.6 TDCI DPF 110 ZETEC is a compact family hatchback, a practical alternative to larger cars in the UK used-car market. Its three-door shape gives it a sportier look than five-door Focus models, while retaining an approachable size for everyday driving. mycarcheck.com recorded 69 look-ups covering 42 distinct VINs, providing a useful snapshot rather than a huge sample. The cars checked averaged 111,000 miles, 8,000 miles a year and almost four previous keepers. An average private-sale valuation of £1,600 may help frame expectations, though condition, history and location can change value. The 1.6-litre diesel is best suited to commuters and budget-minded drivers who value low fuel use and hatchback space; the three-door layout is less convenient for frequent rear-seat access or family loading. Against rivals such as the Vauxhall Astra and Volkswagen Golf, the Focus is known for composed, enjoyable driving and all-round value.
