What is that clear plastic tank (coolant?) on the left and why does it have two different liquids in it? |

It's the reservoir for the engine coolant. The green is the coolant, the red is oxide, eheheheh. I am going to replace it and perform a flush thru the engine to clean it up. Love them taillights.
Gonna try to paint the turn signal in red too. I've seen some painted, looks even nicer. Congrats, Wolverine!! Nice find, very clean inside and out. And the engine bay is very clean.

Took me 2 weeks to find this one, the price was just right. To bad the former owner lost the manual and the 2nd key. Told the guys at the dealer to contact him and tell him to order these from Ford. |

nice
Congrats! Thx guys. Makes me cry every time I think of what I could have bought with the money spent on this one if I where in Canada or US. Better not think about it. What is that clear plastic tank (coolant?) on the left and why does it have two different liquids in it?

The photo shows some dust collected inside the transparent space, had some time yesterday and cleaned it, very easy stuff. Congrats, Wolverine!! Nice find, very clean inside and out.

Would love to have an AT again but it's only available with 2.0 Duratec engine, which fuel consumption would kill me, plus it's not flex fuel. Not 'cause is a thirsty engine, is because our crappy fuel. We now have the Euro Focus available and it will get a 2.0 Flex engine this year, hope to get it in 3 years or so, eheheheeh. |

Hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Got my focus in 2003 and as of yesterday I have 405,372.6 kms on it's orgingal engine and passed the e-test. Does not burn any oil. I do an oil change every 5k. Maybe I just lucky on this one. |

Holy cow, that's a lot of road. Congrats. Ford of Brazil recommends to perform an oil change every 6 months, no matter the mileage. |

Not a scooter, is a Yamaha YBR Factor, 125cc. These 125cc bikes are pretty common here.  Well and to think that I immediately thought that you'd got edumaction!
EHheheeeheh, keep picturing the bishop at the balcony, can't stop laughing now, hahahaahhaha. I know it looks weird, it's that I posted these same pics on a local car forum. Thx Brig. |
