We are picking up our new Focus Titanium X, 1.0 ecoboost 125 tomorrow. Our first Ford.

Currently have a Hyundai i30 1.4 petrol. Salesman said the Ford will feel faster than the Hyundai because its got the 3 cylinder boost and is more like a 1.6 engine.

Is this true?

    Yep ive decided to get a ford focus. While the fiesta zetec s is nice and fast enough i just want a bit more comfort also love the magnetic grey and i put a deposit on 2015 1.0 125 6 speed. But i still thinks fiesta looks better than the focus lol

    Haha ah right I see! I love the new focus! Looks pretty cool, mean and aggressive! You gone for a ZS? TiT? Zetec?

    Zetec couldnt really afford titanium or zetec s the 125 bhp ones seems to be a lot dearer in used cars but i could of got a titanium but it was on 100bhp but chose a zetec 125 instead i will upgrade wheels and spoiler in a few months tho
