I had one for 6 years and did 144k in it – my brother’s got it now and it’s still going strong. Built like a tank, and although it is a focus platform it’s build quality is another level up. I only ever replaced tyres, discs/pads, 1 wheel bearing and a fuel filter housing in that time, so it was probably the cheapest car I’ve had to run.
Not as dull a drive as some would say, the steering was pretty inert but it went round a corner well once you learnt to trust that steering.
Was a cracking car for sitting in for several hours, really comfy, easy to drive over long distances reasonably economical, but the bikes outside was the way to go – certainly not an estate.
