As title really - Missus wants a new car so it seemed the obvious choice to look at after our success with the Focus RS,

My 1st impression was it looked very very good in the ford Racing Blue - much better than i expected...... But my last 2 cars have both been this colour so im trying to talk myself into either the Red or the Orange (Missus really like the orange !!!! )

When it started i was a little dissapointed as on the TV it def had a nice Burble to the exhaust note - but once revved this was the case - sounded like an old Audi Quattro (I'm sure we can get a nice Milltek sytem developed pretty quicly )

When out on the road the 1st thing i noticed was that it was much bumpier around town than my RS was - not a bad thing by any means but this car is ment to be for the wife and kids

I only did about 5 miles but it was enough to convince me i ought to buy one to tinker with (anyone got 19k spare ) The low down torque is very impressive and the power delivery is nice and smooth, It sounds fookin lovely when opened up the 5 cylinders are singing away just right...

I Liked it oh and so did the wife
