Bad Points
I'm only averaging 20mpg and on the whole I have been driving very conservatively around town.
General Comments
I've had my all black Ford Focus ST3 for 3 weeks now and overall I'm very happy with it. I gets plenty of looks as I drive home from work through traffic and even been waved at by women in other cars on two occasions now. It looks fantastic and drives even better. The growl it produces whilst accelerating in 3rd and 4th is totally addictive.
I researched heavily before buying this car trying out many other makes and models. For the money I couldn't find a better alternative, however, if you decide to go the same way as me then be prepared to visit the petrol forecourt a little more often.
