Driving it
What's it like to drive?
It's Ford Focus so you expect good handling and that is exactly what you get. Without the family in the car you can have some fun on back roads, 2L means you have plenty of power to play with. With family in the car it is safe, secure, comfortable and a great motorway cruiser.
What's it like to park?
The parking sensors are great and making parking so easy. Although the car is really well sized for parking in London you probably don't need them.
