Before you buy this car
From the generation guide
- Look for a power steering warning, and check the steering on full lock.
- On a 1.0 EcoBoost, the timing belt runs in oil. Ask for the change record and the oil used.
- On a manual, test the clutch uphill and under hard acceleration. Ask whether the clutch pressure plate recall work was done.
- Check the springs, shock absorbers, axle mounts, lights and exhaust. German inspections flag springs, dampers and lights, and exhausts rust with age.
- Check the starter, alternator, battery and coolant or heater hoses. German sources list these as common breakdown causes.
- Check the door seals. They can come loose.
