Its a saloon........great boot space so you can travel in it anywhere!  Goes fast, is responsive, comfortable and has everything i need as it's a Ghia. Family car but fun!
Petrol consumption is o-kay too tho the car tax was £125 as it's a 1600cc. I'd buy one again that's for sure.

Pros — fast, lots of room inside and boot space is amazing!
Cons — none

This is the most sophisticated car I have owned. It is great company on any road. It is competent in the corners. I wouldn't say fun but it is entertaining, and by far the best car I have driven and soaks up the miles on the motorway. It isn't the most reliable car i could hope for- When the fuel pump went it cost £1700 to fix, and I still need to find £500 for the Air Con to be repaired. I achieve 43 miles per gallon around town, and had it up to 58 miles per gallon on a run. It is better built than most previous Fords, but now it is 6 years old it is starting to rattle. My Focus 1.8 TDCI will do until I win the Jackpot.

Pros — Handling, fuel economy, practical, ride, looks
Cons — I recomend you get the Fuel Pump checked....

This car really was a piece...  No matter how well I kept up the brakes, maintenance, etc.. it ALWAYS ran poorly.. (and the brakes always squealed - i was told this was a trait of Fords) It had little to no pickup and there wasnt anything great about the handling either.  Also... what an UGLY model!!! .. I would guess the only good thing about this car was the gas mileage.. It normally only cost me about $40 to fill and it lasted a long time...
Save yourself alot of headaches and dont buy a Ford...

Pros — Good gas mileage
Cons — pretty much everything other than the gas..

Reviewing: 2002 Used Ford Focus SE

It's a slower car, with only 130 hp, but its peppy enough to be fun, really solid handling, direct steering and good clutch with a smooth shifter, extremely reliable, not a single problem with it yet.  It is also good on fuel, getting near as makes no difference 50 mpg (can gal.) on the highway

Pros — Cheap reliable, fun to drive
Cons — low on power, could be quieter

i bought my focus in january its solid and is amazing to drive. after owning it for a few month i wanted to make it look abit different because theres soo many about, so i tinted the rear three windows and got some 17 inch alloys. but ford archers are massive so the wheels looked small so i got it lowered 50mm it looks alot  better and corners like its on rails without losing any ride comfort. im really proud of my car and would recommend it to anybody.

Pros — looks, reliable, build quality
Cons — only got a 1.6

Reviewing: 2002 Used Ford Focus ZTS

The preformance of the ZTS is iffy. It all ready depends on who is driving it. I, for example, love fast corners and huge accel. Therefore this is a fun fun fun car! The appearance is overall pretty and fun. Gas, on the other hand, is not so good for mileage. I'm constantly filling the damn thing.

Pros — Fun, Fast, Powerful
Cons — Gas

The Focus 2.0 Zetec was a useful car at the time after having a company car for 2 years. Much better performance than the usual 1.6l and 3 door looks helped with the sportier connotations. One service it needed was reasonable but it did go through 5 tyres in 1 year at £100 each for the 17" alloys. Overall was slightly boring!

Pros — Running costs, good size, 2.0l engine
Cons — Rather boring, tyre problem

Reviewing: 2002 Used Ford Focus SE

General performance of my car is pretty good. Acceleration and brakings are smooth which gives good handling. Gear change is also smooth. Havnt had to get any repairs as yet. Have kept up with regular services, although will need new tyres soon. Interior and exterior are both excellent apart from a smoke burn on the roof inside from 1 of my idiot friends(spewing mad)!! All in all it is a great little car which I love!! Took a bit to get use to the europien type where indicators and windows are on opposite sides but all is gud. Great car which I love to drive!! Best car I've had yet apart from me Holden Sunbird!!

Pros — Positives are that is a roomy little car, it has stereo control at the steering wheel, fog lights
Cons — needs more storage compartments
