    I know your probably all going to hate me for sayingthis,

    but i much prefer the Mk2.5 Zetec S

    I’m not mad on the Mk3 interior or front grill area but that’s just my opinion

    which i probably should keep to myself :unsure:

    Im the opposite, I love the new focus, I wish I had one. The exterior has really grown on me (although I'd still opt for the saloon if we had the option, as the rear end of the hatch looks a little droopy),and I'm quite a fan of the interior too, very premium looking/feeling for a car of its size/class - and it'll get all the better when we finally get the My Ford Touch system here in the UK.

    I'm also not sold on the Mk3 yet, but give it time and I'm sure I'll like it.

    Sometimes cars are like that. I didn't like the Ka when it was new but after a while I grew to love it, inside and out.

    When the Mk2 Focus came out I thought it was bland compared to the Mk1 but now I thinks it looks more mature (yes that is a compliment).

    Maybe I'm not sure of the Mk3 yet because the rear lights are a different style to the previous models, but I'm sure it will grow on me.

    I quite like the ZS in the Mk 3 and the ST pictures I've seen look great. However I am still not sold on the other variants.

    I with you on this Lenny , I prefer the mk2.5 style , the front grill and rear lights don't do it for me.

    The MK3 has definitely grown on me since its release... even the stupid shaped rear lights!! Tell you something... its going to be a lot harder to do a twin reverse light conversion with this one!! lol
