I'm scraping togheter furniture for my first house and i found this awesome 1930 art deco clock from the hague. Only thing is it has some waterspots on top. One looks like a mug print and the other just a regular one. Is there any way to fix it. I don't want to paint it as i love the warmth teak gives.
I was wondering if any of you grew up with a ford focus in your life? I'm 28 now but i've been in a ford focus since i was 4.
I still remember my dad asking me if i would like to come with him to pick up our (to us new) ford focus back in 2002. I was so excited and the next day we went to the dealer to pick up a 1998 pepper red focus wagon. We had it until it didn't pass it's inspection in 2013 due to rust.
After that my dad wanted a renault megane but they are known for electrical issues so i tought it was a bad idea. I was 15 and my parents told me here is the budget, go find something. They had a tight budget but i came out to a fully loaded 2004 ford focus futura wagon from the first owner. I even came out €1500 below their budget
That car we had until 2025, my father had passed away in 2024 gifting me the car and he told me to trade it in when i found something to my liking since he knew the car was worn out. Last year i was a ford specialist looking for a new car for my uncle when i spotted a 2013 ford focus sedan out my eyes (in the netherlands they are super rare) and i knew it was ment to be. Bought the car the next week and i still drive it to this day.
I wonder if anybody else has a story like this? To us a ford focus ment a decent, safe and afordable family transportation and still does.
Tiny list of the focusses we had:
1998 focus station 1,6 ambient in pepper red, bought with 75k km in 2002, sold with 207k km in 2013
2004 focus station 1,6 futura in machine silver, bought with 89k km in 2013, sold with 297k km in 2025
2013 focus sedan 1,0 ecoboost titanium bought in 2025 with 165k km
