My 03 SVTf is just above 62K miles
Needs an upstream O2 and maybe new coil pack, wires & plugs.
Besides the damn soft black OEM paint - she has been a very good & fun daily driver. If I could come across a super low mile Silver 04 Euro SVTf I would make the trade and daily drive that one for another few years...until SVT comes out with a new Focus or Fusion or ????

What kind of miles are on your svtf's . It might have miles but it looks and drives like it has half that
Any major problems? These motors are suppose 2 be pretty good and last a while (stock form ofcourse).
@56 k I bent every intake valve, because I cracked the plastic timing cover and a piece of plastic fell into the timing belt and skipped 3 teeth. Now all new valve train and new timing belt ill b keepin this thing 4 a while.
Now suspension is a different story, I go through links n bushings like water. I was thinking of going to a zts focus springs in front just to soften up the car a bit to make it better for our shitty roads .

mine has on it now 48,200...i love my car, but i have had the share of problems as well; clutch recall from the tsb, no start, windshield, heated heats not shutting off, hatch release worked intermittently, and i cant think of others. thank god i bought the extended warranty cuz everything was covered and i only have paid a $50 dedectible once. there has been over $4000 worth of work and labor so far and all i have paid is the deductible. my car is basically brand new now lol!
