One of the best driver’s cars in the class, with truly entertaining handling – especially if you go for ST-Line trim. As well as sharp dynamics, the Focus also rides comfortably, is quiet on the move and is roomy inside. A disappointing interior and a relatively high price are the only major letdowns.
This is the engine to go for if you want more potent performance. It has 153bhp and sprints from 0-62mph in 9.0sec with the six-speed manual gearbox and 8.4sec with the optional seven-speed manual. Best of all, it’s still quite efficient compared to its rivals.
