Most of the cars on the road aren't that new.


My 20 year old BMW had dispensed with the distributor. Not the first make
to do so either.

So I'll try again - name one car made this century with a dizzy?

dunno how new this is, but this definetely has four HT leads coming
from SOMETHING

That is a coil pack.

Given that the bargain basement Ford Ka from 1996, with the Endura-E
engine (essentially the Ford Kent OHV engine fitted to the Anglia in
1959) has the EEC-V distributorless ignition, then the Focus will have
it too.

Ford was a bad choice, they went distributorless before many others.
