Hi Pat,
The biggest issue is actually rust — Focuses from that era were often not properly undersealed at the factory, so rot can set in pretty easily. Make sure you give it a very thorough going over. Beyond that, with a ten-year-old car, it comes down to the condition and service history. If it has a nice, fat, service book still of stamps, then given that it was always a fairly mechanically robust car, you should be fine.
