@matt. Seans brothers Focus is a facelifted mk1. 2002 was the year Ford moved the front indicators from the bumper and into the headlight along with a few other changes. Used to drive a lot of Focus's when I worked in car rental.
Seans brothers looks to be either a 1.4 or 1.6 in CL trim.
Have to be careful of the ECU's on the 1.6 as they are a common problem and come in at a wallet draining £600 before fitting and programming to the car which is about another £200 depending where you go.
Ford will be bringing the mk3 Focus out next year. Looks awful. The mk1 was the better looking one. Especially the RS Cosworth model.

Wow, you seem to know about cars, I have no experience with them, still learning to drive, but I like the look of the new focus.

His car cost £3,450 plus £2,900 insurance but that's likely to come down year on year. It's a smooth car very nicely finished and is cosy inside. Only thing is it has a tape radio which is rather dated

Wow, he was very very brave buying a car that costs that much first time, and his insurance is ridiculous, he should've got a 1.0 Corsa or something like that, cheap to buy, keep running and insurance wouldn't have been over £1000.
Its not likely at all that a driver would do that!

Yeah he had his savings & bought it outright with his card so no debt & paid for his insurance all upfront. Good job he had his inheritance like me cos he was skint after that
