Hey guys

Just thought I'd drop by and let you know that you're not the only ones with this great lttle car!

Just had mine lowered to, about 2" all round. Makes the world of difference to the looks and tightens up the body roll a bit to. I thought it was on rails before, now it's even better!

Had mine about 2 months now and besides a couple of minor gripes (like the windows only operating when the engine is on) am really happy with it.

All hail the bloody awesome Machine Silver Zetec. It's not only the colour they use in all the Focus Advertisements but they also use the 3 door!!!! Ford's Focus of choice... mine too. Only reason i didn't get 4 drs, didn't want to pay for my passengers lol. Lazy pricks can get in through the door, just bend over a bit more!!!!!

For pics of my baby but not including my ST170 side indicator lenses and orange bulbs which weren't installed at the time($30 the lot from any Ford dealer and look HEAPS better) just check out this link to focusfanatics.com I recommend joining, it's a HUGE HUGE forum and you'll find out almost all you know. We need more Aussies. The How TO library will shortly include my own guide submitted on how to replace and install the side indicators.

By the way, has anyone ever seen the Europe only colour, Magnum Grey?? If you thought Machine Silver was hot, then MAgnum Grey will make you scream with joy. It's darker and richer, but still REALLY sexy!!

Any Sydney Machine Silver owners out there?

by the way (talk about being a post whore!!!) the Ford Focus Owners Club of Australia is currently getting closer by the day. I'll let y'all know if and when it gets going. If not then I'll start my own just before Christmas. Check out www.infocusmotorsport.com.au for details on Aussie modification. It's currently a bit limited but building up. Met the guy, he's a champ and the Zfocus concept car is simply stunning. He's negotiating the Focus club as we speak. Stay tuned for more details. But definitely if we all get a Focus network up and running then we can stay in touch for the near future, get a track day group going so we can all post some times and turn up to a group track day for a discounted price. THAT would be fun.

Turbo, if you don't get Machine silver then you're doing yourself an injustice. They're serioiusly gorgeous. I just wish the base models didn't come in Silver!!!!!!!
