Good Points: Handles well, has a lot of interior space and is quite cheap to run.
Bad Points: Noisey, ride is uncomfortable, steering is too sensitive. Engine seems very crude and unrefined.
General comments: This a practical car to own but not to my taste. Give me a Golf or an Astra any time.

This is absolutely the best car I have ever owned! I purchased it in Nov. 2002 in Oracle, AZ. In the past year and a half I have put 62k on it. Never get less than 25mpg in town driving. 32-34mpg on hiway driving.
Auto transmission...Cruise...Air...all work fine. This is not a ricky racer car! Any car will have problems like worn tires and brakes if you hotfoot it! Treat it well and it will take care of you!
I use Mobil 1 oil..change it every 10k...never uses oil in between as I change ...

To sum up the Ford Focus I am sorry to say I would have to use "appauling".

I purchased an 02 1.6 LX, 1 owner with 15,000 miles. What a big mistake I made. Handling and performance is the worst I have ever driven, it is very noisy at speed with the wind blowing against it. The interior is cheap and falling apart by the day. Electrics are do ...

The Ford Focus 1.6 LX 5dr is a very good car. This is what you can call real value for money. Lots of space, reliable, comfortable. The only trouble is that due to the a bit oldfashioned technology this car drinks a lot.

I've been generally happy with my Ford Focus 1.6LX. I love the handling, and am reasonably satisfied with the fuel consumption. I find it hard to be critical of the Focus as it seems to be great value for money, certainly when picked up second hand. Reviews by car mags would seem to bear this out, as the Focus is frequently voted a "best buy" or "best in class" whether new or used.
