The Ecoboost engine and the Automatic transmission is known to be bad throughout the world. The Diesel in Manual in the best spec is what people should go for. only £20 or £0 Road tax too and up to 80 mpg. Combined is around 65-70mpg on the 120BHP 1.5 TDCi.
Such a shame there's not a bigger engine. The rest is about exactly what i want. This 1.0 trend needs to stop. I like it a little beefier and i like some torque in the high gears.
Hi Julie, thanks so much. I believe there was a spare wheel under what the camera showed, although it was a few weeks ago so I can't remember for certain.
@@FefyGT your info is incorrect. In ireland , if you spec the B&O upgraded audio system , then the subwoofer sits on top of the spare wheel. I know this as my focus has it. If you don’t have the upgraded stereo , there’s no subwoofer.
ordered my ford focus st line x in agate black cant wait only issue i have is that they cant ge the chips for the parking pack so unfortunately mine will be missing this feature addon
will got a frohen white tomorrow. ford driver since the first focus,then a fiesta ST which was a little biest, then the 2011 focus with nice leather seats and now the 2023 focus. no leather seaths anymore 🤮🤮🤮 but besides that, my 2011 focus 182PS has made 171'000KM......awesome, hate to give him away😢😢 ford forever. prices are acceptable and they make cars for over 100 years - they now exactly how to build nice cars
I was looking at buying a new one of these in an estate but they are underpowered and not sufficient to lug around the larger body. If you have a full boot and people in the back , you will have problems maintaining speed going up hills
125 Cv and 200Nm of torque is sufficient. It's not a sportcar but don' be afraid of hills and load, 3 cyl turbo gdi hybrids are basically diesels on gasoline.
@@FefyGT as far as I’m concerned , 200NM of torque is nowhere near sufficient when you have a family and items in the boot + roof box to contend with. What is the 125CV that you’re referring to ?
@@daveomeara2419 I used to climb easily with 70hp and 112 Nm, just rev a bit more. Never used a roof box, but I don't see how an additional 100kg would stop a car.
I have the last generation Ford laser kq series a far better car than the focus!! But my baby is my fathers immaculate EK1 Honda Civic sedan 1997 worth more than a laser or focus! Any one got $40grand ??.
