    Ford Focus Flight

    Hi,

    I'm considering purchasing a Ford Focus Flight (2002 UK Model). I believe it
    is a special edition model but how does it compare to say the LX & Zetec
    models? Is it as I think a 'branded' LX model with a few special features?


    Cheers,

    Matt

    it 

    No, the Flight is a poverty spec CL with alloys basically. No more.

    Avoid.

    Resale will be a nightmare- get yourself a proper Ghia or Zetec for best
    re-sale. 1.6 or 1.8. Make sure it has air con!

    Thought all Focus had A/C, at least in Germany? Dunno about
    Zetec, isn't it only the name for the engine? Have a Ghia, those
    wood imitations look horrible, but runs quite well, the 2.0l
    zetec engine doesn't have much difficulties powering the
    vehicle.

    Wasn't really easy getting one used, this engine doesn't seem to
    be sold much. Mostly 1.6l are offered, IMHO the relation
    horsepower/displacement is far from ideal, needing to much revs
    for my taste.

    Air con seems to be an option here in the UK. Zetec is the name of the
    engine but also for a trim here as well. The suspension is stiffer on the
    Zetec models and they look a bit sportier with better alloy wheels. To the
    OP: I would avoid the flight and aim for either Zetec or Ghia models with
    air con. If you get a 2.0l try and get it with ESP. How much is the Focus
    Flight up for?

    Regards

    Early UK cars (except the Ghia?) didn't have AC as standard. It was part of
    one of the option packs.

    Again in the UK, Zetec is a model name. It is roughly an LX with stiffer
    suspension ans alloys as standard.
