after seeing loats of new shape focus' at work the last few days, i'm not sure whether i like the styling of the headlights/grille of the new focus st.

i am getting one in july (will have 2 years no claims then) but can't make my mind up for sure whether i like the way the front end looks. i love the rear, but i just can't get past those headlights.

will be a 3 door in orange, just can't find any official 3 door pics on the internet





i love the mk2 focus st, the styling was excellent, this i'm not so sure of.

yeah, looks sort of the same, but every panel has been re-designed.

reason i posted on here is because everyone on the fiesta websites are biased towards loving it, wanted other peoples opinions

I've never liked them really, nothing has changed now.

Quite a few changes there I prefer that a lot more, see they're still using the reversible plate

very boring interior, as with most modern fords.

No doubt!

I still have a soft spot for the RS.

Would like one after the golf, though not much more would have me an Audi S4

Should have made the original RS 4x4 & it would have been perfect. New ones look lame in comparison!



nearly perfect

Horrid things! I work for ford and had one in, looks disgusting. So do the normal models, interior is sickening!
Fords just get worse and worse!

They look like a mid-life crisis. Especially as whenever you see one it's driven by some fat bald middle management type who can't get an erection so he has to suffice with a bright orange car with a gash bodykit.

In all honesty I think it looks fairly grim, but then all focarses look like clown shoes to me.

As far as i'm concerned, they should all have looked like MK I & II Escorts, been fitted with live axles and had 'Escort' badges on the back.

But then i'm an exceedingly fussy perfectionist in an imperfect world.

I think the use of the colour orange and the letters F.O.R.D. are far more appropriately used here
