I bought my focus c-max ultima last september from polar ford in warrington,i dropped on this model as i was originally looking for a ghia model.It was an ex-demonstrator 7 months old,a very appealing car,very comfortable,nice driving poistion,all leather.It's in the best colour too,Black with its darkened windows at the rear.Mine's the 2.0 TDCI it's very responsive in all the gears and quick of the mark when you want it to be,i've been getting about 38/39 miles to the gallon and on a run it goes upto about 54,so i cant complain at that.I think Ford should carry on with this model,because i would definatly get another one.
