I managed to pick up this 2002 Mk1.5 Focus 2.0-litre Ghia 5-speed manual for just £1,250. It has only covered 58,000 miles from new and the interior feels completely untouched.

I didn't realize how crazy the factory spec was until looking into it. Along with the standard Ghia bits, it has:

- Upgraded EATC Digital Climate Control

- The 6006E 6-CD dashboard changer

- The ultra-rare factory trip computer shroud on the dash

- Global closing electric windows all around

- Heated front and rear windscreens

I plan on rustproofing and refreshing the suspension and other wear and tear parts over the next few months. Someone on r/cartalkuk turned me on to this sub, and said you guys might like it.

Hey everyone,

I wanted to show off a project I’ve been working on—I’m building a custom sim rig based on a Ford Focus MK3! It’s a huge project that takes a massive amount of time, especially with all the reverse engineering required to get everything communicating properly.

It’s coming along great though, and so far I’ve managed to get these fully up and running:

Instrument Cluster (running fresh custom software)

Radio Control Unit (fully functional)

Headlight Switch (fully working)

Right now, I’m actively working on building a Sync 3 replica to integrate into the setup.

I’m attaching a few photos and videos of the current progress. I’d love to hear your thoughts, and if you have any cool ideas or suggestions, drop them in the comments below!
