Hi All 🙂

Newbie here, so please be gentle.

Just bought my first Fast Ford, a 2007 Focus ST1.

I know it's the poverty spec, but I just love it!

Has 90K with full service history, 4 previous owners and the cambelt and water pump were changed about 33K ago, and it is completely standard.

Had to drive nearly 2 hours to collect it, I live in Reading and went to Birmingham to collect.

It needs the side skirt reattaching near the front on the drivers side, but other than that, she's all good😊

No doubt will be asking for your advice on many things from now on.

Have a good day

Paul

Looks nice bud I think yours is the first white 5 door I’ve seen 🤔 and an st1 is probably the rarest ones about now so cherish it and it’ll probably be worth more lol

Welcome Paul . I had the ST1 5 door as well loved it, nice to have the toys but what`s under the bonnet that counts.

Welcome

Alb...Thanks Buddy

Bigayal.....the colour is what made me want this car, like you said, not many white ones around

Swifty1....Yes agree. I had an R32 Skyline GTR about 15 years ago and the toys were even less than the Focus, but like you said, under the bonnet is where it counts

Thanks for all your comments fellas, think I will be having fun with this car.

Cheers

Paul

As a matter of interest, there were three versions of white on the Mk2.
Yours looks like Frozen White to me.

We’re Frozen and diamond on pfl ? And Ice only later on the fl ?

 

[Alb]

That's right.
Ford went back to Frozen on the Mk3 though.
Diamond has to be the rarest.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a white 5 door either ,
Nice motor 👍👍

 

[Sturge001]

Evening all 😃

The advert for the car, from the dealer, said it was Frozen White.
I have no clue if that is correct or even how to check.
Thanks for all your kind comments 😃

Cheers

Paul

Frozen White is Whiter than Diamond White if that makes sense

 

[Sturge001]

Surely that’s an ad for a washing powder 😂😂

Ah…. Ok, you can definitely see the difference in that picture.

I’m guessing the Frozen White is the furthest away from us in the picture? 😃

Welcome, first fast Ford, begs the question, where the heck have you been? now you know what you’ve been missing. 😁
