We bought our used car from a Ford Dealer, low mileage but quite old, and it has been brilliant. Odd minor repairs but can't really fault it - love it! Would definitely get the same make and model again.

The car is very basic and it has been a disappointment to discover that small things are missing. The rear mirror has to be hand adjusted at night. There is no left foot rest. The passenger seat cannot be adjusted vertically. There are no red warning lights in the trailing edges of the door. The clock is not radio controlled. My previous Vauxhall Carlton was much better equipped but possibly not as well built. Overall poor value but I had to buy in a hurry.

Nice car, good drive, however been back to dealer a few times for small problems such as faulty bonnet sensor.Too many gadgets to go wrong. Will probably get rid of it before warranty expires.

For once I chose a car that is truly economical. It's comfy to try and spacious both in the car and the boot. The gears are great and the steering and road holding are superb, even when cornering. It even drives well in the snow. You'd think with such a small engine it would be sluggish but is the complete opposite and has excellent pull even when going up the steepest hills. It's steering even makes parking easier. To summarise the best car I've ever driven.

I preferred the Escort, which was much quieter inside, but have no other complaints about the Focus. Another great car by Ford.

I love Fords. They are my kind of car; practical, reliable, no frills, economical and roomy. Because I do very high mileage, and when I had driven my old Escort into the ground, my mechanic advised me to change to a diesel engine and it is saving me so much money. I have two foul children for whom I run a taxi firm and I need a lot of boot space for all our activities. My car had 160,000 miles on the clock when I bought it and it feels like it's just 'running in'. I#d buy another one tomorrow.

I have had the car for about 18 months and it has been very reliable and has done every thing I ask of it with ease. I drive on a mixture of City and motorway and average about 41-42 mpg.

Have owned my car for 7 and a half years and it has never let me down(touch wood). The current mileage is over 160,000 miles and I am still completely confident with it.In fact we went on Holiday in it this Summer and covered over 1,000 miles in 6 days no problem. To conclude,I would recommend the Ford Focus to anyone as it is comfortable,reasonably cheap to run and 100% reliable.

My present car is a low mileage [for its year] Ford Focus. Because of the age of the car the road tax is more expensive than the newer models and that is one of things that will help when I buy a newer model. The car overall has been a very reliable car, nice to drive and comfortable over long distances.
