Ford Focus reviews

This car is comfy ,spacious holds the road well and considering it is only a one litre model is quite nippy on long runs and for a petrol engine is quite economical.I would say for its price it very good value for money

1st diesel car I have had miles per gallon exceeds all expectations.

A good car in most respects except for the seating. In forty five years driving these are the most uncomfortable seats I have ever encountered. This car is adequate for short journeys but unpleasant on long journeys. I will be looking for a different car sooner than planned.

Really like this car. Performance is excellent. I haven't had it long enough to say a lot else.

I have owned the car just over a year and find it much more enjoyable to drive than my previous 1.6 Focus. Performance is good though a little slow on take up when accelerating. Very comfortable with plenty of leg room as I am tall. A very relaxing drive on long journeys. The hatchback door could be a few inches wider to make access easier but on the whole I am very happy with it.

I have had this vehicle since new.It has done 33,000 miles with no major problems. The only problem at the moment is that the stop start function appears to have stopped working. I find the car very comfortable on the journeys that we do ,the longest one being around 100 miles round trip. The heated windscreen is a great bonus ,as the car is not garaged . If I were to change anything about this vehicle it would be ,the rake of the windscreen,the pillars create blind spots, and difficult to judge where the kerb is, also lots of reflections on sunny days. Larger wing mirrors would help, have to keep adjusting them to see kerb when reversing.

Reliable as ever

I find this car ideal for family needs in the countryside...especially transporting bulky items and/or dogs.

My Focus is an older car, it has relatively low mileage for its year. I have owned it for four years and it is one of the best I have owned in terms of comfort, driveability, and running costs. I would definitely have another Focus, and strongly recommend it to someone who wants a good, reliable car, with enough room to be useful, but very good economically too.

I need an estate car for dog transporting and it is very useful for going on holiday and carrying large or bulky items. There is plenty of room for child seats and it is comfortable to sit in and to drive

I have had quite a few Focus's and find them to be good cars. I was persuaded to test-drive the 1.0 Litre Econetic version of the car in 2014 and was surprised to find that it was as powerful as a previous 1.6 Litre engine that I had before. The car is reliable, and is fairly economical to run. The boot space is decent for most things (like weekly shop), but going on holiday it can be a tight squeeze to fit 4 suitcases in. I previously had a Ford Mondeo and the boot space in that was many time better.

Best car I have ever had I do like fords

I have found the car in the main to be reliable, although a little expensive to run, and a little large for town driving, but mostly it's a great car.

Have only had her for a few days, but love her already. First convertible. Will have to see how she is over the coming weeks/months, but so far so good.

Delighted with my new car, very good drive with lots of lovely extra touches to the interior as well it looking fantastic and also very comfortable.

Delighted with my new car so far, very good driving experience from it, looks great and very comfortable. I couldn't be happier.

As a family we have had Ford cars for many years and have not been disappointed. This latest purchase only re-affirms our belief that Ford is still our favorite. In particular we are pleased with the specification of the vehicle and we feel that we have a very good car at a very good price.

I cannot find fault with performance, running costs, comfort or practicality. The leader in its class. It's just a shame that the car is let down by being atrociously unreliable. It is by far the most unreliable car that I have ever owned. I have only had the car two years and it has been back in the garage on average every 3-4 months.

Nice clean lines and very smooth to drive. The 170Nm of Torque, along with 100bhp gives it smooth power and gear changes, particularly into 2nd and 3rd gear. The push start is a nice feature as is the 8 inch central display screen. Overall very pleased with the car and this particular specification level.
