All aluminium Yamaha developed engine, only 1.6 and 1.25 in Ka model are the Yamaha ones,since my Focus weighs 1060 kilograms and has 101 horses it's actually nice, it can do almost 100 mp/h in third gear, never overheats and so on , my is a five door,year 2000 finished in citrus gold metallic,it's still nice looking car..
Bought a 2003 Focus MK1 with this exact engine as my first card and boy is that thing eager, super fun to drive, if you want a cheap, reliable and nice looking car there's no need to look further than this
The Ford focus 1.6 zetec is 100 bhp, very usable, and very reliable so long as the change oil regularly. Better ride than vw golf and much better on longer journeys. Very good mpg on motorway. It’s a gem and so easy to maintain
I have a beater of a 2.0 LX hatch, and I'm always happy to see other MK1's around, I especially love the interior of these models, its like an AU Falcon done right
Mam takiego, bez rdzy ale mam problem otóż gasnie mi podczas jazdy, został wymieniony silnik krokowy ale nie pomoglo:-\ ma ktoś jakiś pomysl? Klima też niesprawna bo chłodnica 900zl, jest ona zespolona z chłodnica wody.
Jeździłem wieloma autami i nadal twierdze, ze ford focus mk1 świetnie się prowadzi! Sam posiadam 1.8 16V 115hp w lpg. Autko przy odpowiednim serwisie jest nie do zajechania, niestety bardzo lubi je korozja.
@@gokhanbulut4672 ładniejszy wówczas jak dla mnie był focus, dzisaj wiadomo, wszystko zależy od stanu, bo oba rdzewieją, ale Focus chyba bardziej. Wydaje mi się że Astra jest bardziej trwała od focusa, jest prostsza i tańsza w naprawach, ogólnie w utrzymaniu, silniki dobre do LPG w przeciwieństwie do focusa
Ye my dad used to own one but it had a black dashboard instead of the white one which is in this video. Amazing car , Only problem with it , was that it had an exhaust leak.
And now I feel sorry for this car, because of an old man who gave me total damage, it drove great, I honestly like it better than the current car, Peugeot 407
I had the same mk1 focus from 2003 the wagon. The steeringwheel is from very very bad quality. My hands were black from the leather that was pulling off

That 1.6 engine is a masterpiece, much faster than you'd think
Yea they are. Ive pushed my 1.6 to 210kmh easily with 3 people inside. For a 20 year old car with over 200k km its crazy i think
Yeah it's a beauty!
Made in Germany, Engine by Yamaha.

Focus Mk1 has aged well, still a good looking car
The design of the first Ford focus is the iconic!
And mk2 is really iconic 👍👍👍very reliable cars
@@alexktr3098 yea ford did a great job..

In 1998 this was the best hatchback you could buy, miles ahead of the competition, especially in 1.6 or 1.8 form.

My dad has this car! It was his FIRST car and lasted for OVER 20 YEARS. This car is so reliable and good handling 1 of the best cars in the world.
11:14 That hood has seen better days
I love the squeaky gear shifter :)
The noise comes from the clutch pedal
Best Ford i’ve ever driven!
👍😎
I love this car. It was a huge improve over previous Escort/Orion. Very good test!!!!
That engine was used until recently in the Fiesta S (MK7) giving 120hp a simple and reliable engine 👌🏻 now they are all turbocharged tri-cylinders...
For every day, the best is 1,8 TDDI
my first car ❤️
Me too last friday ı have a same ♥️
1995 - 2000: Golden age of automotive design.
Focus, Ka, Puma, Tigra, Clio II, New Beetle...
I owned a 2000 .1.8, 16v, 116hp Focus mk1 Zetec . That car was surprisingly fast!
I bought a 2002 sedan 1.6 16V with just 90.000 km in November 2023…. I just love!
This is exactly my car right now!the color everything 😍
Best car channel on youtube. Simple, chill and amazing.
Drove a base model of these once. Really nice gear change and steering
I have a beater of a 2.0 LX hatch, and I'm always happy to see other MK1's around, I especially love the interior of these models, its like an AU Falcon done right
This was the same car and same colour, that my Dad had when I was growing up. A lot of memories in this machine ❤️
I still have it and it is 21 years old.
What a great car.
I Love Ford focus mk1🚘🔥❤
Focus best driving car 8)
My dad used to drive one of these. I learned how to drive in its sedan version.
Mimo upływu lat, wciąż bardzo często widuję go na drogach :) Szkoda tylko że prawie wszystkie pożarte w połowie przez rdzę...
Ja nim jeżdżę - to piękne auto
Albo czasami jako woły robocze, zwłaszcza kombiaki :/

Awesome mate!! Love the mk1 focus ❤️❤️
It had legendary suspension. Multilink. New Fokus had problem to pass moose test ...
nope
That is one squeaky gear shift
Yes, needs a bit of lube on the gear selector (under the gator) I know because mine used to be like that
Ale mi się kiedyś to auto podobało. Rodzice mieli astrę g a znajomi właśnie focusa mk1 i przy astrze wydawał mi się taki "ociekający świeżością"
ktory jest lepszy ? astra g ? focus 1?

@@kubasliwka2001 Ford nie ma żadnych poważnych problemów poza problemem jałowym, nieusuwalne problemy Opel są większe i niejasne
@@kubasliwka2001 który ma lepszą wydajność?
focus 1.6 or astra 1.6 ?
I really like the mk1 focus interior. Off to look at st170 interior
Very good video 😁😃🚗👍
INTRO is good 👌👌
Amazing how similar this is to the American market one. I had an 03 ZX3 with the 2.3L and a 5-Speed.
I think the best color for this car is blue. Anyway good video
Ye my dad used to own one but it had a black dashboard instead of the white one which is in this video. Amazing car , Only problem with it , was that it had an exhaust leak.
Good job mr Joe. This car was one of the best sellers here in Brazil between 2004 n 2011, n it is one my favorite Fords.
5:27 ouch
if you can make a video with ford fiesta 1.4 tdci , you are a legend
And now I feel sorry for this car, because of an old man who gave me total damage, it drove great, I honestly like it better than the current car, Peugeot 407
1:16 nie wytrzymał xD
Those times was lux to have one of these
This is the first car i ever drove in my life
That gear shift is squeaky af😂
great perspective in the back view mirror :-P
Focus very nice car.i Iove ford
Mimo tylu lat to nadal dobry samochód, tylko znaleźć taki egzemplarz bez korozji to dopiero wyzwanie
1.6 the best engine
No i jest silnik z bliska. Elegancko!
Güzel video kanalını sevdim dostum
Buen vídeo gracias 🙂
that gear shifter would love to get some lube 😁
I still drive 2000 focus mk1 1.6 16v, 330k+ km
Remove the leather cover and lubricate gear stick. That squeaking sound is terrible

Hi Joe I like Ford cars very much I want you to review Raptor. 🥺❤
Very good car ❤❤❤❤
Cool!
Is the 1.6 8v engine made by yamaha too?
Idzie jak zły 😊 . Kolega z warsztatu ma też focusa , to na oleju nie wyrabia tak pije 🤣🤣
i love this video...
Can somebody tell me why is there a squeaking noise when he shifts?
When I had one it did it to, normal for them I guess and don’t forget even the youngest MK1s are coming up to 16-17 years old now.
Autko ktore w swoich czasach najlepiej sie prowadzilo. (w klasie kompaktów).
in my 1.6 sedan i made mwx 167 with 2 person
Focus of first and second generations had 3-door hatch version. But there no such versions anymore
6:39 👏 😮
My first car same hehhe
El ruido al pisar el embrague 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Tiene casi 300.000 kilómetros, bastante bien va para tener esos kilómetros 😂
Good car
Came for the car, stayed because of Katowice
Sollte mal das Schaltgestänge in der Konsole fetten.
This car can do 0 to 60
please do a Nissan cube
So nice 😍 thanks what is this country
Poland
Cool car, but the hubcaps .. I hate hubcaps.
Was it a comfy ride or like a quite harder ride?
Is this on the original engine ?
Yes there was 1.4 ztec 75hp,1.6 ztec 100hp,1.8 ztec 115hp and 2.0ztec 130hp
My dad own one like this😃. Can you please make a pov drive in Ford Escort 1.8 16v cabrio?
Why the check engine light is on? I have the same model, but 1.8 TDCI with 115 HP so just for curiosity?
Still own one, 6 years togheter now..i used some oil 5 years agol for that shifter and the noise is gone
Только в конце видно увидел розовые часы
Can you do a video with a silver Focus? A my friend have this car.
nice test good car but there is noise in gear :)
Is the engine check because of the lean bank1 like mine?
I like old cars,so I have a challenge for you,try to finde Dacia 1300 or 1310 =-)
Good
ford focus 2 ghia pls 💫
Çok yakıyor
Going to third gear is not your strongest side, isn't it
I had the same mk1 focus from 2003 the wagon. The steeringwheel is from very very bad quality. My hands were black from the leather that was pulling off
Currently I have the same car and I am looking for a GPS support, does anyone recommend one?
It's actually 100 hp?
Mașina asta o avea tata mai demult
What is wrong with the gearshifter?
Why does it squeeze like that?
22 years old car.
I have drive a lot of "old" car and never hear that.
De unde ești?
Why the all focus you drive have check engine? xd
Что за камера у тебя ?
