 The car is a used Ford Focus 2000. Automatic. title clear. The car is very economic on gas. I bought it from an old person who took good care of it. He used to drive it from Chicago to Phoenix once a month.

 VIN:1FAFP3430YW335463 

This is a good buy. I have seen these Ford Focus selling for over 4,000 dollars.

 the car is in good running condition.

 PLEASE NOTE: The car fax shows that there is an issue with the odometer and title.

  EXPLANATION: I just bough this car from an old person. The issue that happened with the odometer was a few years ago, I did not own the car then.. I am personally aware that the engine was changed a few months ago for another used engine. The odometer does not show the actual milege on the engine. The issue with the title does not exist anymore, the car is on my name. I got the title at the Motor Vehicle Division. The old person used to pawn his car to get needed money. The pawn shop used to put a lien on the car. But once the loan was paid, the lien would be removed. The prior owner of this car did the same transaction over the years, eveytime he would go back to the pawn show to pay the loan. That is the reason these title issues show on the car fax. The title is clean and on my name now!!!.

THE GOOD

  It passed emissions about 6 months ago. It has a strong engine. The Ford Focus starts, rides and drives fine and is ready to go on the road.The engine was changed for another used engine about 4 months ago. I do not know the actual mileage on the new used engine but the odometer shows 212,500 miles (please remember this is not the actual mileage). The two front tires are in good shape. The car can use new rear tires. This is a smoke free vehicle. The car has very minor dings and scratches.  

THE BAD

The old man that sold it to me told me that:

-Up until 3 weeks ago the A/C was working fine, then it suddenly stopped working. The A/C compressor was changed but then a week later the A/C stopped working again. The mechanic told me it needed the little motor located underneat the dashboard. It costs about $45.00 dollars brand new. If you don't live in Arizona then you do not need the A/C.

 -Just a few days ago a yellow light on the dashboard came on. I took it to the local Auto Zone so that they could connect the computer to the car to do a diagnostic. The car needs the TPS (throttle position sensor) which costs $25.00 dollars brand new. Once changed the light will go away. You can still drive the car throughout the US without changing the TPS.  

 Please remember You are buying the car as is.  I am not a mechanic and I have not taken the car to the shop to be looked over by a professional mechanic.

 You are more than welcome to come over and check the car.

 As the pictures show the exterior color is black and the interior is tan. The interior is very clean. The exterior paint could use a new paint job.

 THE CAR IS IN PHOENIX, ARIZONA. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR SHIPPING ARRANGEMENTS.

2014 Ford Fiesta ST

Tue, 15 Oct 2013

I'm not overly inclined to professional jealousy, as a rule. Sure, I go a bit green around the eyes when Ramsey draws the 911 GT3 trip to Weissach, Harley is tapped-in to drive a completely stunning Porsche 911 by Singer, or, you know, Drew Phillips gets to shoot a Lamborghini Veneno in the middle of a desert like some sort of sheik. I hate you guys...
Honestly though, one of the new car events that dug me the most, was when our Steven J. Ewing got to fling the Ford Fiesta ST around some hot corner of Europe. What goes around comes around, I suppose, as Mr. Ewing himself espoused an envious nature of the Focus ST trip that came before.
The good news in all this covetous intra-office behavior? All the cars mentioned, and specifically the Fiesta ST, are just wonderful to drive. I can say that with more confidence than ever now, having joined Ford for a good bit of Fiesta-flinging myself. In my case, the locale was slightly more pedestrian (Michigan not Portugal), and the car in question was the five-door version of the Fiesta ST that we get here in The States, as opposed to the three-door number they get across the pond.

And the Top Gear UK Cars of the Year for 2013 are...

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

Those loony Brits at Top Gear have named their Car of the Year, and if you're thinking it's the McLaren P1, Jaguar F-Type, Land Rover Range Rover Sport or Rolls-Royce Wraith, we're sorry to inform you that none of those Anglo automobiles earned the crown. In fact, the winner of Top Gear's most prestigious award is quite the surprise.
Of course, those cars weren't without their own awards. The P1 was the top hypercar (sorry, Porsche 918 and Ferrari LaFerrari), while the F-Type netted best convertible and the Range Rover Sport was voted SUV of the Year. Other honorable mentions included the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black and S-Class, the Porsche 911 GT3, the BMW i3 and the Ferrari 458 Speciale. The winner, though, wasn't even a high-dollar supercar. It was the Ford Fiesta ST.
Yes, the Fiesta ST beat out some off-the-wall cars like the revolutionary Volkswagen XL1 and the bonkers Peugeot 208 T16 Pikes Peak, not to mention all the cars we listed above, to take the title of Top Gear Car of the Year. And if you've driven one, you'll completely understand why.

How Ford plans to handle insurance and repair questions surrounding new aluminum-bodied F-150

Tue, 21 Jan 2014

Building a car out of aluminum has a number of benefits - the lighter weight allows the vehicle to be more agile, more fuel efficient, make better use of its power and be more resistant to dings and dents. The downside to the advanced construction, though, is that repairs are both challenging and expensive. That's troubling for the new, aluminum-bodied Ford F-150, because it's kind of made a name for itself as a rugged, durable work vehicle.
How will the legions of Ford buyers cope when it comes time to insure and repair their new trucks? Well, according to Ford, it's expecting a ten-percent jump in insurance costs for the aluminum-bodied F-150, although Ford's truck marketing manager, Doug Scott, was quick to point out that the F-150 is generally cheaper to insure than its competition from Ram and General Motors. "At the end of the day, that's sort of a wash," Scott told Automotive News at last week's Detroit Auto Show. "We've spent a lot of time and feel very comfortable that that's not going to be an inhibitor."
The other issue facing Ford is the distinct lack of body shops that have the training or equipment to repair aluminum-bodied vehicles. AN cites an estimate from the Automotive Service Association claiming that of the 30,000 independent body shops in the US, less than 10 percent are able to work on aluminum.
