Just wanna say hi to this family as i am shifting from my Fiesta to the new Focus. It will have the zetec s trim, magnetic metallic grey and sporting the 1.5t ecoboost petrol engine. Estimated delivery is mid August.. but looking forward to it very much so. Will keep you updated with pictures, and just hope i could take it to the fordfair, but might just miss out..

Any of you got the 1.5t? How is it so far?

Be cool,

Z

Is the 1.5t a petrol or Diesel engine ?

The petrol version, i've amended the post :)

Ah nice one I bet that will go well ! [emoji106]

Yeah, thanks, fingers crossed. I wasn't able to drive it as they all seem to be custom orders, and no demonstrators are available, only with the 1.0T 125HP ecoboosts. But they said who ordered it was very happy with the performance.

It should look exactly the same from the outside (well, except the reg plate) as this one here:

Very nice ! Yh I bet that will be quick do you know what bhp they have ?

Thanks! It's about 150BHP, but it's four cylinders so the power should be available at lower revs and be more linear than on the 1.0T.

Hi Zed, I have ordered the same focus. Good choice on the colour :)

Mine should be here within two weeks.... Hopefully.

managed to find one in stock with the spec I was after.

Hey Kev, great choice i believe, congrats!

What is the colour and what extras you put in?

Mine had to be ordered from factory, they didn't see a matching one in stock.

Got these in as extra:

Appeareance pack 2

Cruise control

Sync 2 dab navigation

Rear parking sensors and tinted rear windows.

Did you try the 1.5t engine?

I have ordered mine in Magnetic Metallic also.

I went for:

Appearance pack 2 and tinted windows

Sync dab Navigation

Door edge protectors

Rear View Camera

Convenience pack - Parking sensors, auto folding wing mirrors, park assist.

Can't wait to get hold of it now. No I took out the 1.0 ecoboost. I did think that was a good engine though, picked up nicely. They didn't have a 1.5 there.

Hah, great choices! I wanted the auto folding mirrors too but as you know they are part the convenience pack, but i didn't want keyless door opening or park assist. But very happy that zetec s has keyless start standard.

Yeah i tried the 1t ecoboost too but coming from the same engine in the fiesta, even though the focus had 25bhp more, it just felt a bit weak, but if you keep it in the right rev zone it can be nippy.

Don't forget to post some pics once you got it ;)

Btw, are you coming to FordFair?

Yeah bud I'll be coming along with my brother (Who has just ordered a white ST, delivery for September though) Haven't got stand tickets though but will be floating around.

Sure I'll get some pics up as soon as I have it.

Anything planned for yours mate?

Good stuff, I got my tickets from here so i assume i will be with these guys, but yeah probably will be floating around too.

Only thing i got so far is the S badge for the front grill. Comes from Asia so delivery will take a month probably :|. Apart of that i guess i will get mats, but that's about it.

Anything in mind for you?

I managed to get Ford to throw in the mats... Always good to squeeze something out of them.

Thinking wind deflectors for the time being. I've seen that on eBay. Was tempted but wasn't sure on the fitting. IS the one with the long bolt? I would fit it in roughly the same place st the ST badge, however form pictures it doesn't look like the grille has holes in this area. It looks filled with plastic so would have to nearer the middle.

Guess will find out when I get the car. Would be a nice addition

Mine came a whole month early so you may be lucky.

Fingers. Crossed. ;)
