Ford Focus ..... Top Car!

[ultimapaul]

I picked up a 3-year old, 58k mile Focus for the wife to smoke around in yesterday. 2.0l Ghia with a few toys. What a top drive. Drove it back from Altricham to Southampton averaging 39mpg.

Found the chassis very responsive and the steering a delight. Revvy little 16 valver sung round to the red line, tight 'box, commfy seats, bloody good sound system and proper wipers!

Shame I'm going into the Golf really. May have to 'borrow' it occasionaly I think.

Oh, did I mention the cost? £100 per month rental, yep, £100. (Don't ask 'cos I won't tell)

Go on, it costs me more than that just to sit in my 'grale

It's more than that to sniff the Ult's fumes ..... still not saying tho'

Go on, be a devil, you're just jealous cos my baby would whup the big ult round a track .

There is an Ultima in the body shop where the grale is at the moment, and it has been at pre primer stage for months now. Got a Chevy engine ready to go in it and he's buggered off abroad I believe.
