Upgrading to a 12/13/14 Focus

    Hi,
    After 15 years of blissful motoring and ten of them with me as driver, my poor 03 Focus has had enough. I love the car and want to get a focus again. My budget can get me a 12/13 and maybe a 14. I don't need to drive everyday, what would you recommend? Also, I haven't bought a car in a while and see some 13's already have had two owners is that normal.

    Thanks

    The 2012-14 versions of the Focus are regarded as being inferior to the older model in terms of good driving characteristics. The one to go for, if you can afford to, is the post 2015 version with the "Ecoboost" petrol engine.

    Thanks for that, might be above budget but will check it out.
