Ford Focus: passenger on board

Ford Focus, the third: very safe, nice reasonable.

I have been driving Ford for 14 years. My first one was a Ka, I really loved it. Unfortunately, he is not suitable for family. My current Ford Focus is from 2004. First generation, everything still from the outside and clear from the inside. Practical and reliable. But love? No, more a marriage of convenience.

The successor to the Ford Focus is edgier and makes in the interior of thick pants. Buttons and displays everywhere - I can not even find the switch for the rear wiper system. Presumably, you need a good passenger to whom you call his instructions. So first read the manual. Then I know: The new Ford Focus has built the passenger in the form of various assistance systems right away? Although this costs extra, but is very useful and otherwise only much more expensive models reserved.

My Ford Focus can now hold the track when I can not stand it anymore, it brakes automatically before I push my front man in the back, and recognizes in my posture whether I should drink a coffee again.

Logically, that I spend my test drive challenging my invisible co-driver. So I'm slipping from side to side in a slumped pose. And do not be disappointed. You can rely on the assistant. That's for sure, that's reasonable, that's what you want from the new love.



Only the thing with the passion does not want to adjust. Although the car is sportier than the old one, it is super on the bend and saves fuel. A good car, then. But I feel nothing, this car does not speak to me. I suppose I'll buy it in a few years anyway. The new Ford Focus is not good for the hot affair, but as a used family man, he certainly makes a good figure.
