1.8 not the quickest, but is acceptable for the average family driver.

Living with it
Reliability
97P with 120k+ miles, and not many problems. If thinking of buying, make sure it has a Ford service history and that all the necessary work has been done. If it has, they are great cars.

Security and Service
Service
Very poor service from dealer. Couldn't care less about custom, so now use parts department only. Local garage does all of the work for me.
