Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Great. Feels much like my old Focus estate did but with a bit more body roll from its increased ride height. Suspension set up ensures decent handling coupled with good ride quality. This is an excellent all rounder which has surpassed my expectations - well done Ford.
What's it like to park?
Easy. Parking sensors front an rear make parking a doddle.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing
What's most practical about your car?
The AWD gives confidence in poor weather conditions and makes sure I have driving wheels in contact with the ground when towing a loaded car carrying trailer. The split tailgate is surprisingly useful.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The split tailgate I guess. It enables us to fill the back of the car to capacity with the main tailgate closed so that nothing gets squashed or falls out. Quick clear windscreen is a really worthwhile thing to have - excellent. Fold flat rear seats are also good as it has enabled me to sleep in the car on occasion. Parking sensors help a lot with street parking.
