woofer, 140mm mid range driver and a 25mm high frequency metal dome tweeter - producing an impressive and cohesive sound. Available in a choice of real wood veneer finishes the Epos M16i floor-standing speakers are simply superb.
Advantages: A great car from all angles Disadvantages: Not as many extras included as I would have liked
I am now the proud owner of a ford focus 1.6 zetec and for the first time in many years I have actually found a car that pretty muc suits all my needs.
I have spent many a time in cars that are too big, too small, not suitable, not comfortable etc but this is everything I could ask for.
I own the three door version but the doors open widely and when the front seat is moved forward there is plenty of room to get anyone in the back, even my mother in law who is disabled. The back of this car is extremely spacious, comfortably fitting 3 large adults in.
The boot size is deceiving in that it looks pretty small but is very spacious indeed. Perfect for all those shopping bags as well as a childs pushchair.
The actual drive of this car is superb. Mine runs on unleaded and is very economical. I can get over 200 miles to £35 ...
Advantages: Handling and Looks Disadvantages: Customer Service, Bodywork, Transmission...
Two years ago I decided to buy a brand new car, and after much research I decided upon the Ford Focus 1.6 (old style now). Everything I had read pointed towards a really good choice. So I went into my local Ford dealer and a week later I had my nice new car.
First thoughts were a good looking car, well built, fantastically smooth to drive, held the roads amazingly well. All of the equipment worked wonderfully well and I absolutley loved my new car. Then the problems began....
After two weeks the Airbag Modulator failed, so I went back to the dealer, and they replaced the faulty part within a few days. They wouldn't let me have a courtesy cat so was left hanging around the dealers for a few hours. All work was under warranty so no cost to me.
Three weeks after the Modulator fault I was washing the car and noticed tiny rust spots ...

I think that just about everyone on the planet has heard of the ford focus and knows that it is a cheap and reliable car. So there you go. The new model is very similar to the old but yet is still better built and better to drive. Dont expect it to set any land speed records but then thats not what its made for,but for heavens sake dont buy a 1.6 automatic! It has a top speed of roughly 74mph! The brouchure may say more but i have had first hand experience with this model and is a very sad sight being over taken on the motorway buy a car transporter carrying 6 brand new Hummer H2's (weighing at least 2 tons each!) while we were goin flat out pedal to the floor! But apart from that i would very much recommend this car. However, compaired to some of its rivals it doesn't look such a good deal. One rival being the VW Golf wich is better ...
