Ford Focus is Britain’s best selling car

The Ford Focus has been Britain’s best-selling car for each of the ten years since it went into production.

Now the second generation Ford Focus is back with a fresh new look to complement its formidable ability as a multi-ability driver’s car.

If you’re looking for a five door family hatchback the chances are you’ve considered a Ford Focus.

For every 20 cars sold in the UK one will be a Focus.

And then there’s the fact it has outsold every other car in the UK every year since 1998.

The car looks smart and stylish with large speedo and rev dials flanking the smaller temperature and oil gauge while other information is displayed digitally between.

Three- and five-door models provide a dizzying range of performance, practicality and economy.

Want performance? The 2.5-litre Ford Focus ST promises a 6.8 seconds 0-62mph time, a top speed of 150mph, average return of 30.4mpg and CO2 emissions of 224g/km – which currently place it in car tax band F with a £205 annual bill.

The Ford Focus provides buyers with a huge range of choice and that is extended to the range of equipment available through the four specification levels. These are Studio, Style, Zetec and Titanium.

The outgoing Ford Focus earned a maximum five stars following EuroNCAP crash test results and the new model boasts the addition of drivers’ aid electronic stability programme, which helps the motorist retain control of the car, from the entry-level upwards.

Ford has kept all that was good with the Focus and made well-received improvements to a few key areas to raise the overall appeal – in particular, it is now a better-looking car.
