The old Ford Focus ST built itself a solid reputation as a fast, fun and affordable hot hatch, so you'd think that for the all-new model Ford would stick to the tried and tested formula.

But instead Ford has replaced the characterful 2.5-litre five-cylinder engine of the old car with a four-cylinder turbocharged unit, while the talkative hydraulic steering has been replaced by an electric system and there's more performance-boosting gadgets than ever, too.

You must have had your eyes shut or didnt try any of the buttons on the dash in the focus because they rarely work 1st time.

The golf GTI edition 35 235 bhp £28000 the ST-3 250 bhp £26000, both do 60 in 6.5 and 154 mph hardly incredible. P.S my old man works for fords and has a focus 1.6 titanium EcoBoost and hes gets 36 mpg combined. 40 mpg is the best hes managed yet ford say it will do 47 mpg.
