Ford Focus C-MAX (2003 - 2010) 1.6 Style 5d Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
In their own words
Pros. Huge Roomy Comfy Decent power (1.6 petrol) Lovely drive Easy to park Easy to replace bulbs Picnic tables for rear passengers 12v socket in boot
Cons. Well below mpg as advertised. I avg under 30mpg... closer to 45mpg on long trips No manual lock on boot just electronic so you might get stuck Handbrake on wrong side Rear seats heavy but you feel difference if removed.
How reliable do you find the car?
New clutch at 147,000 miles. £360 all in. Servicing cheap at £90 for last one. New calipers are expensive. Wear and tear things like pads and discs are cheap enough. new battery was nearly £100... but it was Halfords.Does the car do everything you expected it to do?
Room inside is fantastic! Take the rear seats out and youve got yourself a small van. Great for camping and those trips to the dump. Great for transporting large items. Loads of storage. Rear seats can be removed and/ or configured to your liking. I took centre rear seat out permanently (except MOTs) and other 2 seats slide back giving even MORE legroom for rear passengers. Im 6ft 2 and really comfortable position in back. Lift up tables on back of front seats. Cup holders front and back. Perfect position gear stick. Height adjustment steering wheel. You really do get a lot of car for whatever you pay. Only downside and its a picky one is handbrake more on passenger side than driver side... could be designed more for left hand drive cars. Easy to replace your own lightbulbs... no removing them from wheel arches. Whole light cluster comes out so easy a child could do it!About their car
