The Ford Focus has now been with us since 1998 and in that time has proven to be a firm favourite. It won European Car of the Year in 1999 and has been listed as one of the greatest cars of past decades by several British Car magazines.
As a direct replacement for the Ford Escort which had been in production since 1968 and was waining in it's appeal, the Ford Focus was to lead next generation of small family car. The new car had been redesigned from the ground up and styled to move Ford's small family hatch in to a new era for comfort, aerodynamics and driving experience.
The VW Golf has proven such a reliable car that hopefully you wont have too much trouble and it will only visit a garage for a regular service, however no car is perfect throughout your time owning it and any problems should be sorted quickly and easily by a reputable service centre like ourselves to help minimise any expensive repairs which can be caused by poor maintenance.
Most reputable service centres may also offer free safety checks for components such as brakes, tyres and fluids which will help identify parts that might be wearing out before they become a problem and create a large repair bill. Another check to consider on older models is the Air Con efficiency as the AC system may need recharging to bring it back up to full capability.
