It's driving position is tall but everything is well within reach, the cabin is big and practical whilst not using the best of materials, the handling is fantastic and the engine is adequate. It's a better steer than a 306 I will admit, with a keener turn in and less body roll.
Oh, and the Air-con works
the 1.8 Zetec focus my mrs had (same shape as yours) was and absolute heap of shite! The gearbox was horrid, it rusted for fun, the clutch was nasty to use, interior is made from the cheapest plastic they could find, the brakes were crap the steering was too light with no feel at all and the bottom rotted out of the sump! (how something full of oil can rot is beyond me) Oh and it was as slow as a really slow thing, I would quite honestly choose walking over driving it!
So ummm yeah, IMO, great car, recommend one to anybody :roll:
