1999 Ford Focus LX review from UK and Ireland
"Fantastic Ford Focus"
General comments?
This is probably the best car I have ever had. It handles really well, looks cool and reliability is not a problem. After previously owning a Mazda 323fastback, which looks fantastic and had all the extras, but was the most expensive and unreliable car I have ever had, to now having a car which puts the fun back into my driving. I cannot recommend this car highly enough. It had been a ex-rental car, and with 96k on the clock I expected some problems, but it is a fine piece of engineering.
