very nice car but think i prefer the normal headlights though.

Lee, why not get a escort that you will use everyday, a less of a minter,one with a few more miles on it,used etc...

Think the focus is a good car and don't think they look like every other normal focus,they do stand out.

Hope its the car you want it to be when you get on.

I love the Focus RS, but I'd lose that gash twin headlight conversion, the bonnet vent, and the splitter.

I like em, but just hasn't got what the escos has, escos makes you stare and has a huge presence leaving you thinking I want one (unless you are a lucky **** and own one already.

The focus for me just doesn't do that, personal opinion but i think that it just ins't far enought design wise from the standard focus.
