2005 Ford Focus Zx3 Ses - 115k Miles, Orange, Great Shape, Manual Transmission on 2040-cars
Woodstock, Illinois, United States
I am selling my 2005 Ford Focus ZX3 SES hatchback. I have owned this car for the last 6 years and it has been a daily driver for me. When I got the car, it had 54,000 miles on it. I have never had any issues with this car, I have only had to do normal stuff i.e. tires, battery etc. I would not hesitate driving this car anywhere in the country. I have been using it to make my daily 85 mile round trip commute. I decided I needed four wheel drive because of all of the drifting I deal with on country roads, so it's time to sell the Focus...
The Good Mechanically excellent condition, never had an issue with anything Brand new battery in September 2013 Upgraded Kenwood stereo with USB input and iPod connectivity and control Upgraded speakers 30+ miles per gallon on the highway Manual transmission shifts as smoothly as the day I bought it Starts right up every time Power Mirrors Power Door Locks Remote keyless entry Regular oil changes every 5,000 miles(I have been running synthetic since I bought it) I have 3 keys and 2 remotes(only one has ever been used by me) Sunroof operates just as it should The Not-So-Good There is a dent in the rear passenger side quarter panel about the size of a soft ball, right on the corner The front tires only have about 30% left, rear tires are better There is a small 1/4" size hole in the back seat During the recent cold snap I accidentally broke off the antenna. Not hard to replace. Brakes were replaced at 80,000 miles so they will probably be due soon Very minor rust under the wheel wells, not visible That's about all I can think of. If you have any questions or would like to take a test drive, send me a message and I will accommodate. I have the car listed under KBB value. This car will be a great vehicle for someone looking for a very fuel efficient, fun to drive, good sounding car. I have enjoyed it over the last 6 years and hopefully someone else can enjoy it for at least 6 more. Thanks for looking. |

Ford Ranger-based 7-seat SUV spotted testing
Wed, 29 May 2013Ford looks to be working on a new SUV version of its global Ranger pickup truck. An early prototype of a seven-passenger SUV based on the Ranger has been spotted testing in Australia, and word has it buyers in the region could expect to see the model in showrooms as soon as 2014, where it could sail under the Endeavour or Everest badges. Ford Australia currently sells the Territory SUV, so there's some chance that this model could be a successor to that throne, as well.
Whatever it's called, the long-roof Ranger will feature a shorter wheelbase and more ground clearance than its pickup twin, giving the machine a bit more off-road functionality. (And here we thought we couldn't want the global Ranger any more than we already do.) While this particular vehicle sports a Territory back half grafted onto a Ranger front end, odds are a public reveal of the finished product could occur as soon as the second half of 2014, making it a 2015 model. Head over to Carsguide.com.au for a closer look.
Ford rolls out diesel Focus ST at Goodwood [w/poll]
Sun, 29 Jun 2014If you're in the market for a hot hatch, there are some excellent choices at your disposal - especially if you live in Europe. But if you want a diesel, well, your choices become rather more limited. Volkswagen tends to that niche market with the Golf GTD (essentially an oil-burning version of the GTI available Stateside), but that's about the extent of it. The pleas of those looking for more diesel-burning hot hatch choices haven't fallen on deaf ears at Ford, with the Blue Oval not only rolling out a facelifted gas-powered Focus ST at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend, but also a new diesel version as well.
The diesel Focus ST (which we hope and pray isn't marketed as the STD) packs a 2.0-liter turbodiesel four producing 182 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque to propel the oil-burning hot hatch to 62 in 8.1 seconds en route to a top speed of 135 miles per hour. With less power and only slightly more torque, that makes the diesel Focus ST considerably slower than the gasoline one, which packs 252 hp and 270 lb-ft, runs to 62 in 6.5 seconds and tops out at 154 mph, but (in a testament to how far particulate filters have come) the diesel model cuts carbon emissions by nearly a third compared to the petrol version and returns about 50-percent better fuel economy, which makes that much more of a difference in markets where diesel is already priced better than gasoline at the pump.
For buyers who wouldn't consider anything other than a diesel, it also represents 23-percent more power than the previous top-level diesel Focus. The VW Golf GTD, for reference, offers up 181 hp (just 1 horse less), 280 lb-ft (15 fewer torques) but is somehow estimated to reach 60 in a considerably fleeter 7.4 seconds.
NHTSA investigating Ford Fiesta for faulty door latches
Mon, 15 Sep 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary investigation on the 2011-2013 Ford Fiesta because the regulator has received 61 complaints from drivers, including one claim of an injury, about the doors on the subcompacts failing to latch and sometimes even flying open while driving. NHTSA has estimated that the problem could affect as many as 205,000 vehicles.
NHTSA is still gathering further data about the problem, but looking at the complaints so far, both front and rear doors appear to be potentially involved with the alleged failures. Among the reports, there are 12 claiming that the door opened while driving. Several also indicate the "Door Ajar" warning illuminating during this problem. The one purported injury happened when someone attempted to shut the door, and it bounced back.
Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker told Autoblog via email, "We are cooperating with NHTSA on this investigation, as we always do." Scroll down to read the report from NHTSA.
