The suspension is relatively stiff, gives comfort but still gives you some grip in the corners. Where this car is let down is the engine though, it just isn't gutsy enough for short space overtaking or getting anywhere with a heavy load. It is nippy enough for around town though, more than adequat...more

Ford Focus 1.8 Zetec has to be one of the most reliable cars out there in the market today. Having owned my Focus for over three years it has only played up on me once, but soldiered on and got me home nevertheless (all will become apparent later :-) The servicing costs are relatively cheap, or as cheap as they can physically be for a car due in part to the high numbers of these cars on the road. Spares for indicators etc are extremley easy to come by, I recommend taking a trip to your local scrap yard where I promise you there will be some ford Focus's. The only problem the car has given me, and the only extra cost apart from the annual ...  Read the complete review

I'm currently driving a Ford Focus Zetec 1.6 Petrol. It's a great car! The car is now 9 years old but is in great nick, it has certainly lasted well but hasn't had much use over the period. The usual suspects are starting to appear, a little rust on the bottom of one of the back doors and a little rust on the inside of the bootlid. Apart from that though, it is lasting amazingly well. The handling of this car is great, for a bog standard not really sports orientate hatchback. The chassis copes with most fast driving situation on the road, wouldn't be anywhere near useful on a track though, just trying to give some perspective on road driving.

i bought an 09 focus zetec 1.6, as everyone says, the steering and comfortable sports seats are superb. The air/con, cd/radio, interior and quick clear windscreen are the usual ford standard. it really is a very smooth drive, although i find it a bit sluggish from first to third. as for fuel costs, im averaging 38 mpg which is really good. ive done a lot of motorway driving recently and the focus is first class for comfort on a long drive. on country roads the sports suspension and superb steering give it excellent handling on those twisting b roads. Appearance wise, with the new shape of the bodywork, alloys, front fog lights, the focus looks great. Overall i am happy ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review focus does everything that is asked of it (149 words)

I own a 1.8 zetec focus and i have to honestly say that it is the most reliable car i have ever owned. For mundane tasks like taking rubbish to the tip, taking children to sports games etc its roomy, comfortable and the 1.8 engine does go - ish. Ride and handling is superb, the best bit of the car and it rightly should get all its paludits it has over the years. Mine came with CD player, alloys and metalic paint as standard, and when its comes to servicing it cost me just over £100 for a service and change of spark plugs, spares are so easy to come by as well which gives piece of mind. I reckon im getting about 30-32 mpg per cycle which is a tad dissapointing if ...  Read the complete review

I've owned a ford focus tdci for the past two years. It's proved to be reliable and the services costs are not too bad even through the ford dealer. It's a comfortable but firm ride and it handles well on the corners. The Ford CD player is rather basic and can be difficult to use when driving but the controls are available on the steeing wheel. The boot is a decent size with plenty of storage space and with the back seats down there is plenty of room for carrying furniture and large loads. The standard tyres that came with the car have worn down and I was suprised how quickly this happened. The car is a 1.8 turbo diesel but it's slower away from traffic lights than the ...  Read the complete review
