2005 Ford Focus st170 review from UK and Ireland
"Not as good as it claims"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing as I have only had it 2 days.
General comments?
The Ford Focus ST170 isn't worth buying. There are better cars out there. The engine isn't the best in the world, but delivers a reasonably amount of power, but does need to be revved to get the most out of it. The remote Central Locking takes some getting used to as all you hear is a click. The stereo is good though, but you have to turn it up load to block out the excessive road noise and then you can't talk to your passengers without shouting. The seats are the most uncomfortable I have ever sat it.
