Focus St Line X

[Steve vRS]

Not the most exciting cars I know but I am looking at these in estate form and second hand to replace my lease car when it goes back.

Does anyone have any experience of the 1.5, older high powered model vs the newer hybrid 155bhp car?

Thanks in advance!

That'll be a no then! Looks like I'll need to go old school and blag some test drives!

I had a 2019 ST line 1.5d for 4 years, it was a great car, good on fuel and OK performance for what it was.

I got a new 1.0 ST line Hybrid in January and I don't think its as good an engine as the 1.5d

The heater controls are now on the display which I find a royal pain in the arse too.

Thanks, good feedback. I need to decide by June when my current lease goes back. Might get the youngest 1.5 I can!! Unless a great lease deal drops in before then.

I have the 182ps 1.5t. It does me okay day to day, pootling about town the engine actually sounds really crap but give it some stick its okay.
