    Hi there.

    Me and my wife where look at the Ford Focus 2007 1.6L zetec automatic hatchback (now thats a long name). But none of really know that much about cars. I have tried to find some reviews about this car but I am not having any luck at all. My wife lived in the states for some years and now will not drive anything else then a automatic.

    Would any of you good people here have anything good/bad to say about this car? Anything you have to say about it is good for us. We have both heard good things about the ford focuses but it would be good to hear what actualy people think about them. =)

    Regards,
    /c0rn

    They're a great car, but inexpensive autos, such as the unit fitted to the Focus, tend to sap power and do about 5-10 mpg less than the manual.

    No reason to believe it will be anything less than 100% reliable, but it's a pity you can't get the manual.

    Autos are good, but not on small engined cars:)!
