Ford Focus Titanium 1.6 TDCi 2010

2 star review

Before buying we read various magazines and websites to qualify our choice. The 1.6 TDCi came out top. We bought a full option (leather,Sat nav, Zenon follow me headlights,rain sensor wipers etc.) model. I must admit one year on I find the road noise unbearable, the seat comfort poor on long runs and the diesel engine, in my view, is noisy during urban runs. We get 54 MPG max which is not bad? Worst of all is the depreciation of the model and the new model is cheaper even though they have applied better technology. Too many on the road they say and Ford’s part ex offer is derisory. So we are getting rid of it and although it has all the bells and whistles I will not be sad to see it go.

Ford Focus Zetec 1.6 sport 2010

4 star review

I am very pleased with my Ford Focus 1.6 petrol Zetec, although I am only getting 40 mpg instead of the 52mpg Ford indicate. I like the headlights, the boot space and the room inside the car; my last car was a Ford Mondeo 2 ltre, but the Focus is still very good compared with that. The car is in white, which looks very nice, the car is one year old and is soon due for its first service, I paid for the 3 year servicing so it should not cost anything. The ride is a litle harsh, but this maybe due to mine being the Sport model? I don’t know. I would recommend the Focus, but as I have said, do not expect as many miles to the gallon as Ford advertise.

Ford Focus Titanium 2010

2 star review

Have tried all ways to set the steering to comfort or sport, but nothing comes up on the menu. Would like to use comfort as I use hand controls and standard gets heavy on a long run.

Ford Focus 2010

4 star review

We purchased our brand new ford focus sport on 1st August 2010, we are very pleased with it. it is a brilliant white, which we think, (my wife and I) that the colour sets it off. It is keyless ignition and has a multitude of extras, the dash mounted menu set up takes a while to get adjusted too. the mpg is not as good as the brochure says, that says 52 mpg extra urban, the best we have got is 43 extra urban, this may improve as the car is "run in". We are impressed with Perrys of high Wycombe, who have telephoned us twice to enquire if we are satisfied with our choice, which we are. The salesman at Perrys was excellent, explaining everything to my wife and I, and made us feel as if we were the only customers that he had to deal with, and yet there were other customers waiting to see him.

Road noise is driving me bonkers!! Bought the car new. Dealer in my area (St Louis, MO) states that they hear "nothing". Everyone that rides in this vehicle comments on the LOUD noise. Everyone. New tires did not seem to relieve the situation. Numerous shop visits - "nothing wrong....no noise". I know I am not deaf. Any suggestions????
