2005 Ford Focus Petrol Manual Hatchback by Focus • 24th May 2013
Excellent car, so comfortable and smooth around town or at motorway speed, lots of space inside and high roof makes if feel even more spacious. Ours is sport model so v well kitted out with extras like air con, electric windows etc all the toys a modern car needs and German quality feel to interior. Really good size boot for this class of car a lot more space and bigger opening than a lot of rivals. Nice strong comfortable car allround

2005 Ford Focus Diesel Manual 5 speed Hatchback by Focus • 2nd January 2012
I've had my 1.6 diesel focus for 2 years now, great car all round. bought this car because of its value for money. Great size diesel engined car for alot less than german or japanese options. Its really grown on me, can not fault it, confortable drive and very easy run I always get 50+ MPG irrespective of how heavy my right foot gets. Parts and service costs are very reasonable. 1.6 TDCI is great engine with smooth acceleration and a boost of power where you need it for overtaking. Cabin has loads of space and loads of headroom and great size boot. The seating position is great all passengers have confortable high seating with great visability drivers seat is heaght adjustable and stearing wheel hieght and distance adjustable to get perfect confortable driving position. The centre arm rest is a nice extra on zetec spec or higher, mine being LX didn't have one but I sourced one from breakers yard for £50. The LX spec cars do not have trip computer with Avg MPG and outside temp meter which is a little missed in winter months but the standard heated front screen is fantastic, great for clearing mist quickly and can even defrost frost and snow from the windscreen at temps where deicing spray or hot water just refreeze.
