Interested in buying a mk4 focus ecoboost 1.5 (150hp) with the automatic box.

 

How many revs does it do at 80mph?

 

I don't want it to be too loud at that speed.

 

Thanks,

    How would anyone in the UK be able to answer that ? 🤣

    Don't know about the auto but my manual 1.5 does 3k revs at 80. I have to stress I only found out when I very first drove the car and wasn't acquainted with it and inadvertently found myself travelling at that speed.

    I'm 7'11 and 28 stone built like a brick out house.

    I do break the speed limits quite regularly. 

    Which of the above is true?

    It will be less than the manual as the 8th gear is taller than the manual's 6th
