  • On the road

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Used as a driving school car. Easy to drive and the pupils loved it.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Cracking engine when it runs. Almost as good as the Fiesta Zetec, but not quite.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Many electrical problems resulting in engine failure.

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Sports seats a must for long trips. Did not have the problems with back ache that I am prone to.

  • Security and Service

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0

    No real support when the ECU went down, just a big bill. Complaining does not help. Still being resolved.
