My 2002 Focus was the biggest piece of shit i ever owned. My 1997 dodge neon was a much better car (that should tell you how bad the focus was).
I bought it with 88k on the clock. Radio didnt work, speedo didnt work, alternator went out, and had a score of other electrical issues. Not to mention the rust. The engine started 90/10 times so i guess it had that going for it, which was nice.
