New focus? 6 speed box or no?

Anyone know what the story is with the new focus. Wondering if any of the 1.6 TDCI yokes have six speed manual boxes. Ones I've seen advertised all have 5 speed boxes.

I think all petrol models are 5 speed and all diesel models are 6 speed now

Yep, all 1.6Tdci Focus models on the Ford Price list are shown as 6 Speeds.

100ps ecoboost are 5 speed, but the 120ps models are 6 speed.

Thanks for all the replies. Was onto some lad in Cork. VW dealer. He checked the two yokes he had in stock and told me they were 5 speeds. Must be 90 breakers and not the 115 breakers advertised. Jaysus.

Some craic trying to find a '12 Focus 1.6 115 bhp yoke. They're all 95ps/ 90 bhp models as far as I can see.

Mother in law wants one. She test drove a 95PS model earlier and was not impressed!

Good point. I don't fancy the resale value though.
