Sadly it isn’t love at first sight. 135 mile drive home yesterday evening, J22 of M1 uphill slip, into third, foot to floor and not a lot happened. Closer to home the lack of power became very apparent on the country roads I know, and it’s both ridiculous and unfair to compare my previous 330 & Barbie to Henry.
Handles well enough, lots & lots of toys, very practical, but I was honestly expecting a bit more get up and go from the 1.5 as opposed to the 1.0 engines I’ve had in previous Focus rentals.
Let’s hope I grow into it, otherwise it may well be a very short relationship.
And I really don’t miss the sitty up driving position whatsoever.
