Advantages: The c-max is a good family car. It is roomy, comfortable and practical. Disadvantages: For the driver it is quite cumbersome to park and a high ride from the road.
This review is intended for people who do not understand or are not interested in the technical side of cars and driving. I know nothing about that myself. However, I can tell you how I feel about the C-max my partner and I bought when our family was due to become bigger.
Now if you can imagine, up until this point I had only driven a Fiesta. A small and nippy car. Looking for a big family car was a bit of a shock to me - and believe me we looked ... ...test drive.
We have been very happy with the car. Our 5 year old loves the 'secret' compartment by his feet where he keeps his travel toys and books. He thinks it is very grown up to have his own light in the back and his own table to fold down. Our baby's chair fits very nicely and there is lots of room between the driver and passenger seats for the passenger to turn around and deal with the children without interfering with the driver.

Advantages: Loads of Bootspace, Practicality, Performance Disadvantages: Dealers, Consumption
My first C-Max was a 1.6 TDCi, and I have to say that it was a disappointment. The specification of the car is practically the same as the 2.0 litre TDCi apart from the six-speed gearbox, but the performance left a lot to be desired; the 1.6 was slow and sluggish with too much 'lag' so I was pleased to get the 2.0 litre a week or so later. What a difference this car proved to be! The specification includes power assisted steering, electric windows ... ...Brakes, Twin Airbags, Heated Front Screen (An absolute MUST) Air Conditioning, Electric mirrors, Remote ICE controls, Alloy Wheels, Cup Holders, Aircraft style trays, Rear floor storage, Sunglasses holder, Remote controlled central locking, Alarm, Three rear inertia seatbelts, and of the course the optional furry dice! Don't be fooled by the cars 'family' look, this car leaves most of the idiots competing in 'The Traffic Light Grand Prix' for dead! ...

Advantages: Good road view Disadvantages: Kept cutting out
The Ford Focus C-Max, was a very disappointing experience for me, as the Vehicle that I had was in the garage on 17 occasions. Each time I took the car back to the garage they told me that there was nothing wrong with it.
On the day I was about to collect the car from the dealer, I received a phone call not to collect the car as there was a dangerous fault and it was not roadworthy. This sound have sounded alarm bells, and I should never have taken ... ...day duty after coming out of the hospital car park, my steering went, and I had to call out the RAC, the gentleman that came out spent almost 2 hrs running tests, and things went from bad to worse.
The gentleman from the RAC towed the Vehicle back to the garage, for them to repair it. For the next first week I was without a car, and the garage never told me I could get the lend of a car for the time it was with them for repair.
I eventually received ...
