This is an auction for my 2003 Ford Focus SVT 5-door hatchback with just over 113,000 miles. It is Silver with Black leather seats with Red inserts. 6 Speed manual transmission. If you're searching for an SVT Focus then you already know all about this car. This SVT Focus has the cold weather package; engine block heater, heated seats, heated mirrors, and traction control. Also has the Audiophile Package which includes an 8' powered sub in the rear hatch/trunk area. I replaced the audiophile head unit with an aftermarket Pioneer that has Bluetooth and Sirius Satellite Radio. I will also include the original head unit. The rear windows were tinted by the previous owner. I bought this car in 2006 with just 24k miles on it. I have driven it daily since, but just got a new Mustang so it's time to sell the SVT. At 105,000 miles I had the following parts replaced: front struts, front springs, rear shocks, timing belt, tires, IRCM module, plugs, wires, pcv valve, air flter. The thermostat housing was also replaced about 18 months ago. This car is all original with no modifications. All the SVT specific parts are all present. I put a hitch on it to mount a bike rack. The rear diffusor was cut to accommodate the hitch, but I will include a brand new SVT rear diffusor with the vehicle should you choose to remove the hitch. The clutch is the original clutch with 113k miles and just starting to slip. It will need to be replaced soon, but is still very driveable. It slips a little at high RPMs. You can get a LUK replacement clutch kit for the SVT Focus on eBay for $425. This SVT has been adult driven and not abused as evident by the fact that the original clutch has lasted so long. Brakes are fine, but could use a service in the near future. A/C works well, Power windows and power door locks work perfectly. There are the usual chips/scratches associated with driving a car daily, but no rust or dents or any body damage. In January 2008, my wife was driving through a construction zone and a passing dump truck hit an orange traffic cone and propelled it through the grill of the SVT (talk abut a freak accident!!). The car was repaired with Ford/SVT parts; the bumper, grill,and radiator were replaced at that time. The repairs were done very well and I only mention it here to be honest. I have every confidence in this car, but urge you to ask any questions prior to bidding. I have the clear PA title in my possession; there is no lein. The car is located in Willow Grove, PA 19090. The car is neither registered nor insured at the moment so I am unable to drive it to assist in delivering it to the high bidder, The high bidder is responsible for picking up the vehicle or arranging for transport. The high bidder will need to pay a deposit of $100.00 via paypal within 24 hours of the close of the auction. Balance will be due at the time the vehicle is picked up. I will accept cash or a verified cashier's check at pick-up.On Jul-21-10 at 17:39:25 PDT, seller added the following information:I looked into getting a temporary non-resident tag for anyone that lives outside the state of PA and wants to drive the car home to their state. All you need to do is have your driver's license and current insurance card for any car you currently have insured and pay $45. We would both have to go the the DMV/tag store, sign the title in front of them, pay your $45 fee and then you get a temporary non-resident 30 day tag so you can legally drive home.On Jul-21-10 at 17:40:37 PDT, seller added the following information:****Please DO NOT email me to ask if I will end the auction early. I will not. Yes, there is a reserve, and it is less than the $5,000 "buy it now" price.
