2003 Ford Focus Pros and Cons at TrueDelta: Owner Pros and Cons by ***johanp.za

Safety & braking
Big brakes front & rear that is not prone to fading, even on the track.
Powertrain performance
Very linear power delivery with 90% of max torque delivered at around 2000rpm
Exterior styling
Understated yet sporty looks with awesome looking 17" wheels.
Front seat support & comfort
The Recaro sport seats are very supportive with adjustable lumbar support and electric height adjustment.
Fuel economy
It is very heavy on fuel. Around 11.5l/100km in town and 7.0 to 8.0l/100km on the open road.
Dealer practices
Mostly pathetic service and expect then to pass the blame for anything that breaks under warranty.
Reliability & durability
Lots of teething problems when I bought this car, it was fixed under warranty but the clutch broke prematurely and they were unwilling to help.
