Honestly, its really not that bad, most people lose a LOT more than that on used cars, especially anyone that runs them until they die like my Dad does. You bought it at 9 years old right? Look at the 9 year old high spec diesels around now, guarantee they'll lose a lot more in monetary value over the next 6 years than a grand!
I expect to lose more than a grand in 3 years on the Focus, if I was keeping it 6 years I'd expect to lose something like 3k... You just have to consider it when buying and add it onto the running costs. Id rather lose in comfort and refinement than lose half as much driving something I hate.
