Economy
Value
I picked this droptop up for £2k with 32,000 miles on it and a 12 month ticket - amazing value.
Costs
Put a full tank in. I've done 184 miles and still above 3/4.

Driving
Didnt expect such a smooth drive from a Ford.
Performance
I used to own a 306 cab 2.0i and there is a great difference in power; I am impressed.

Living with it
Reliability
Only had it 3 weeks. Ask me next year.
Image
Hmmmmmm difficult one this... it is just a Ford, but saying that it does look nice. Great shame about that ridiculous security bar in the middle.
Comfort
Nice sporty interior. Shame it's got that Ford bog-standard look. Comfy though.

Security
Bought with standard f/f alarm and a Cobra cat1 total enclosure alarm. Problem is it goes off when a fly farts.
