    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!

    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 ZX6R
    Have 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.
  • 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).

    Surely, the " Chav " is the is the one behind the wheel, doesn't really make any difference what they drive.;)
  • I drive a 1997 ford fiesta with no frills..is that a Chav car?
  • Just seen an ad for the new ford focus on the telly, looked really good. I'm driving a Seat leon at the moment.
    I hate migraines.
