Just done a tour of the highlands in a KIA ceed as my focus is sick.
I must say what a nice car to drive loads of toys to play with (parking censors front & back also sat nav) the engine for a 1.6 diesel is very refined. Sat happy at 85 from Glasgow to penrith
Maybe bye bye Ford hello KIA ( 7 year warranty helps ; ) )

MK1 Focus, introduced in 1998? Shock as brand new-ish model is better equipped than a car released 12 years ago.

I do get to drive a new focus at least once a week ; ) (MOD pool car)
Just saying it felt like a nice car to drive.

Yes, it'd be more noisy and less smooth

They're solid, basic cars with a good warranty. No more. If you're after quality materials or enjoy driving, look elsewhere. A demonstrator/similar would be an ideal car for someone who likes having a new numberplate and no hassle - the vast majority of the country I'd imagine, unfortunately

Basic car? For your £ you get more kit then the same priced ford!

I can get a new honda civic 1.8 disel for £13999, kinda makes the ceed expensive.

Ceed 3 £13741 ; )
