Spanner can help turn your car details into an advert.
Could suit you if…
- Your usual group fits within 5 seats, including the driver. Check passenger space and any child-seat fit in person.
- Many journeys are local or relatively short: petrol can fit that use without choosing diesel just for occasional long trips.
- You want practical access for everyday shopping and bags: the hatchback opening may suit your routine. Check actual boot space.
Think twice if…
- You need to carry more than 5 people together: the advert records 5 seats, including the driver.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 13 years old and 190,756 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
The 2013 Focus is the Mk3 pre-facelift; petrol manuals are mechanically simple compared with diesels (no DPF/AdBlue) and are cheap to run in town. Petrol engines in this year range from the small EcoBoost turbo 1.0 to 1.6/2.0 units — the 1.0 EcoBoost will be the most economical but needs the turbo checked, while larger petrols return average economy but feel more responsive.
- Manual clutch operation: check biting point, slipping under load and any vibration — dual-mass flywheel issues are possible on older examples.
- Gearbox feel and synchromesh: try all gears for crunching or missed shifts, especially 1st/2nd on high-mileage cars.
- If it's a 1.0 EcoBoost petrol, check for turbo noises, oil consumption and any smoke on start/accel; for NA petrols look for oil leaks from the rocker cover area.
- Front suspension wishbones/balljoints and anti-roll bar links: listen for knocks over bumps and check for worn bushes.
- Rust and corrosion around sills, rear wheelarches and under the boot floor — inspect underside and suspension mounting points for corrosion or repairs.
