i bought an 09 focus zetec 1.6, as everyone says, the steering and comfortable sports seats are superb.

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 ...
