Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Auto box is DIABOLICAL. The moment you try to get a little speed in 4th it revs itself down to 3rd and 2nd and I am not a fast driver. Fuel economy is APPALLING 25 around town, 35 on a run and 29 mixed. WAY BELOW the official figures.

easy

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Not according to ford.According to Ford there is nothing wrong with the car and everything 'works as it should' Goodness help us!
What's most practical about your car?
Good head height as I'm 6ft4. That's about the only positive. The rain sensitive wipers come on in bright sun light, the auto lights are on when they don't need to be. The stereo is rubbish - very 'tinny' and all the base is lost when travelling about 40mph with the horendous tyre noise-like the humming trumpets from the world cup.Closing a door sounds like a piece of empty tin.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Bluetooth works sometimes but mostly doesn't connect without a lot of fiddling. Voice activation is in-accurate. Climate control is also not accurate as is the outside temp gauge.
