Hi Guys,

Picking up my new Focus Zetec S on Friday.

It's a 1.6 TI-VCT petrol, manual in Sea Grey. I'm pretty excited, although have read a few reviews stating that the 1.6 engine struggles?

On another note I have a friend who works for Ford and my car has just passed through the workshop for a pre-delivery inspection, he sent me some photos of it in the pit today.

I'm really intersted to hear what you all think of this model, stories good and bad welcome!

I asked him to remove the 1.6 boot badge also (See below) :)

    Nice looking car:-) Smart colour.

    Had the diamond brite option when I got mine but didn't know much about it so decided to give it a good coat of polish myself.
