I had a three year old 1999 Ford Focus Zetec for about 3 years. It was a super car. Never had a moment's problem with it. Anyone who called it a chav would have done so simply because they were jealous.

Now I have three children and so drive a people carrier because it's the only way to safely get the car seats in properly - now that's chavvy!"One day I realised that when you are lying in your grave, it's no good saying, "I was too shy, too frightened."
Because by then you've blown your chances. That's it."0 -
Wouldnt have said a focus was a chav car !
Where do you get the information from that says the focus is renowned for being number 1 ? is there a top ten
I must be out of touch as always thought it was either a Saxo or a Corsa but not a focus
Oh i own a 07 Honda Civic and also a 58 ZX6RHave a nice day

I have a car who's average owner age is 60 and female, but it has a bangin' stereo and bigger wheels. Not quite sure what that makes, tbh...
(except a pimp-wagon)Nothing I say represents any past, present or future employer.0 -
The Saxo & corsa used to be the top chav cars.
Now the chavs have families,so the Focus has taken over.
Be proud yours cars a chav ( larger buying market).0 -
As i said is there a list somewhere ?
Would probably make good reading ,if only to take the pee out of someone
Have a nice day
