07 Focus Style Auto - what gearbox does it have?

[xpeterpx]

Guys , need some help and advice

I have been considering an 07 plate Focus Style with an auto gearbox.

I know from some research some Focus gearbox are more reliable than others. 

I need to ask what the Auto gearbox is in this car and whether its the more reliable version?

Thanks for any advice

As far as I know it's an 'old school' torque converter box which is the type considered to be 'reliable' by most folk.  It's the flappy paddle 'Powershift' ones you want to avoid.

Ford Elis will tell you which box you have but '07 will have the 4F27E box, technically a '3 speed + overdrive' box.

I have this transmission on a 1.6 petrol '10 plate and it does what it should do without drama. Changes are smooth under normal driving conditions but don't expect slick shifting under harsh acceleration.

Good luck
