  • maybach, daimler ag, mercedes-benz, landulet - Mercedes officially stopping Maybach luxury collec 24 Aug 2012 (Forum)
    Are you in the market to buy or sell a new or used SUV? If this seems like you, learn more on our websites at Gus Johnson Ford. Want to know find out more about Gus Johnson Ford? Take a look here ! Nobody seemed to want Maybach There are a lot of reasons why Daimler AG would get rid of the collection, but the biggest reason is most likely that the car sales have been slow.
  • Modern traditional - who does it well? 25 May 2007 (Forum)
    The 2005 facelift has thrown away a lot of that good, subtle work in the vain hope of beating the Germans at their own game. Volvo (or is it Ford?) has held its nerve much better and had the courage to remain distinctively Swedish. So, discuss!
  • Ford Transit - Speed Limiter 8 Jun 2025 (Forum)
    I'm asking this purely out of genuine interest. We have a fleet of new automatic Ford Transits at work. They're unreliable as hell, but that's a different story. Anyway, they are limited to 62 MPH from factory (there's a Ford sticker in the windscreen) and the sat nav confirms 62 MPH when flat out on a motorway.

  • Ford Fiesta/Peugeot 308 - Ford Fiesta/Peugeot 308 Engine query 30 Mar 2022 (Forum)
    Hello, I am looking at buying a second hand cars, but I am not very knowledgeable about vehicle technical matters. I have recently viewed a 2011 diesel Ford Fiesta and a 2012 diesel Peugeot 308 and I noticed something in common with both of them, which didn't seem normal to me. They both seemed to have part of the engine covered in a knobbled casing which didn't look quite right.

I had this car since March 2018, always passed MOT, always serviced regularly (according to the service history) but I was expecting some better economy for such a small diesel engine.

  • Ford Focus ST - Ford SYNC. Phone Wont Pair 19 Dec 2013 (Forum)
    I've followed the instructions to pair my phone on SYNC and after connecting a few seconds it drops connection. My phone is on the Ford list to work with it. It updates regularly. The Bluetooth is on and connects successfully. What I have read is that some older Android phones require a 4 digit pin instead of the default 6. The advice I've seen to obtain a 4 digit pin is to do the usual pairing then when the 6 digit pin displays on the screen you hit the ">>" button on the steering wheel, and this should show a 4 digit pin instead.

  • V reg 1.8 Ford Focus - Ford Focus rear lights 28 Nov 2013 (Forum)
    Hey, wondered if someone could help me. I have my MOT booked in tomorrow on my V reg 1.8 Ford Focus One of the reg plate lights was out so I pulled the cover down to replace it, stupidly with the lights on. Saw a spark and a fizzle and they went off. At the same time the beep beep signal that the door was open with lights still on also went off, and so did the rear lights.

  • Ford ranger - Dealers verbal agreement on price 21 Jul 2013 (Forum)
    We were asked to pay AN ADDITIONAL £7,000 on top of the originally agreed price. Ford HQ will give us 2 services free for the inconvenience. Absolutely disgusted with Ford for not honouring the original price agreed seeing as it was there fault for the massive delay. Has anyone else had the same problems?

    Hello! I'm thinking of buying a 2009 Ford Focus 1.6 petrol TI-VCT. A few days ago I got the chance to ride in a friend's 2007 Focus (pre facelift). I was very surprised by the sheer amount of tyre/wind noise that occured at speeds no higher than 55 miles/hour.
