Not much I had one and the only thing that went wrong is the headlight cable burnt and they wouldnt replace it, and the boot rattled which needed a little adjustment apart from that... happy days! Mine was a 1.8 too, decent cars

if i bought the Focus then i wouldnt be able to afford 2 holidays and lots of presents to myself.. As its £20k for them
and i bought this car outright so no extra costs.
you must be minted, or good at saving
