DON'T BUY A CAR LEMON IN THAILAND 🇹🇭

[@raymonde4272]

Very nice looking car Jim. FSH sounds very promising. Didn't you have a Chevrolet before too? Or does the dog not get a mention.

[@Jim-Andrews-Thailand]

Hi Raymonde sold the Chevy last year and. bought a small Fiesta, but it was so small not practical for my needs etc. I saw the Focus and jumped on it as I know these are generally good cars. I still think Honda & Toyota are the best and that's what I have in the UK, total reliability! Hoping all well buddy. Best wishes Jim

[@michaelj2528]

Congratulations on the new car Jim hope you have some great journeys in the car . . Always entertaining

[@thaibillyboy]

I think you bought well with that car Jim, looks like new, cheers.

[@Jim-Andrews-Thailand]

Yes hopefully everything stacks up well, much better than the Chevy & Fiesta, time will tell LOL! Cheers

Hi Jim. Always like your little films. I’ve just bought a new car, a Ford Everest. Before signing on the dotted line I insisted on them fitting both forward and rear facing video recording cameras. I always remember your film regarding that lorry reversing into you! 😮. Good luck chum. Best wishes from me here, this week in Lam Luk Ka. 😊

[@Jim-Andrews-Thailand]

Sounds great Andy glad you got it sorted! Hopefully safe driving out here buddy. All my mates are motorcycles out here, but not for me! As always thanks for the support! Enjoy the Everest great car!

[@AndyfromDoncaster]

@ cheers chum. Safe driving for you too Jim. Thanks for your films.

Hi Jim! Nice clean looking Focus. Definitely worth buying a second hand car in Thailand with the full Ford service history. Have a great weekend Buddy 😊

[@Jim-Andrews-Thailand]

Yes mate looked clean and the Ford service history impressive. So hopefully its a peach, time will tell? Thanks for the support and watching!

[@Martinjp147]

Nice car jim, white always look good when washed and polished. Enjoy. Martin in plymouth

[@Jim-Andrews-Thailand]

Hi Martin first ever white car and highly impressed when its cleaned LOL. Hoping all well & best wishes, Jim & Nuch!

[@Martinjp147]

@Jim-Andrews-Thailand all well jim and nuch, from a wet and very windy plymouth

[@SimosThailand]

Great vlog Jim - car, resort & restaurant all in one! A for effort too 😅 I had a ford focus for a long time too, I have always preferred the original shape/styling from the late 90s early 00s though. Classic shape and very distinctive at the time. Take care buddy 👍👍😎😎

[@Jim-Andrews-Thailand]

My Dad and I had an old Ford Focus diesel 2006. Very reliable and sporty. Always been Ford fan, even though I know Honda & Toyota are so reliable. Best wishes Simo

A lot of these on FB market place and one2car for under 100K, some with mileage mid 100's, sure a little older than yours but still great value for a 2011-2013 car. The main thing is that you are happy which you obviously are :)

[@Jim-Andrews-Thailand]

Yes mate so far so good. 2000 Km and never missed a beat. Guess time will tell. Thanks for the support! Jim

[@maxsobota2939]

[@Jim-Andrews-Thailand]

[@recovered100]

Unfortunately most fords are lemons🥺 hopefully you got a good one and it doesn’t cause you any trouble 🙏 . Enjoy 👌.

[@Jim-Andrews-Thailand]

I hope so too buddy, last focus had 16 yrs, let’s see? Thanks for watching

[@davedavis7589]

obviously didn't read about the class action taken against Ford cos of the terrible gear box, the clutch and the black box controller ... Toyota next time fella ....

[@Jim-Andrews-Thailand]

Yes the gearbox problem was on the earlier models version 3. No problems on later models 3.5 onwards. In Uk I run a Honda civic great car and classic Toyota MR2

[@maillotperso2060]

Yes confirm verry verry BAD gear Box i hat a Ford Ecosport 1.5 same gear Box and hoppefully they repair it free under warranty = 10 years But shit first time 1 week in the repair shop second time 1 month Dry clutch verry verry bad really and all Focus - Fiesta and Ecosport same problem with this gear box.......shifter locked - shit electric motor attached on the front of the gear box really a MESS.

[@peterward9755]

Honda or Toyota in Thailand I’ve got a Toyota fortuner good car

[@Jim-Andrews-Thailand]

Yes totally agree. I have a civic in the UK, ultra reliable. Time will tell with the Ford! Cheers

[@stephenwhite4293]

Have a look at vala hotel cha-am the food is top quality as are the rooms.

[@Jim-Andrews-Thailand]

Thanks Stephen will try much appreciated Jim

[@mijead00]

It's to expensive and wrong brand😅😅 My Volvo V70 2004 cost around 40 000 bath. Regarding Micke 🇸🇪

[@Jim-Andrews-Thailand]

Wow you got a bargain well done buddy! As always Thanks for the support, Jim

[@patrickwalker2509]

Wait until you need parts for the Volvo. Jim: looks like a good buy unlike that Chevy you had!😂

[@mijead00]

@@patrickwalker2509 parts it's cheap for volvo

[@maillotperso2060]

No thank you ....verry BAD Gear Box you will have many problems with that .

[@Jim-Andrews-Thailand]

Yes fully aware of gearbox problems, but pretty sure the 3-5 version was resolved? Time will tell, cheere

[@stevieh3223]

Parts in Thailand for FORD can be a NIGHTMARE thats why they should be cheaper. Best to stick with Honda or Toyota much more reliable.
