  • Driving it

    4 out of 5 4.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Excellent, ford really pulled out the stops with this car...could have a bit more power and a sixth gear would really help as engine rev's are quite high at motorway speeds....almost 3.5K at 70 mph.

    Easy peezy....however turning cirle could be better.

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Passenger door sometimes has trouble closing due to door seal...sometimes requires a firmer second attempt. 'Braking system Malfunction' error on display...slight intermitant software error, waiting to hear about an update from ford.

    What's most practical about your car?

    Everything! good rear legroom/headroom, decent sized boot

    Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

    Got to be the street package...side skirts and 17" alloys really make the car.
