Wow, new one isn't anywhere near as nice looking as the old one. Looks a lot bigger too, personally I'd have an S-Max, think they're the best looking car to come from Ford for a very long time.

Good write up.
Not a fan at all though, I think it looks awful in every way.
Maybe it's just me and I dislike the futuristic lines it seems to have. Just they seem to start with the front bumper and continue all the way to the dash.
Like the colour though.

That front end look like it belongs on a car much lower to the floor the way it finishes at the bottom.
Actually that front end would look good on the focus I recon

Also prefer the looks externally of the old model. I'm considering a soft roader to replace my 3series and think it will be either a kuga or crv both in outgoing models though as I prefer the looks.

Ford have failed with majority of external designs but won massively with their interia designs .
The custom van must of been designed by a car driver not a practical van driver. Does anyone know if they are dropping the transit design and going down this custom route?
Not too keen on new car colour combo , I think wheels have to be a different colour to break it all up

It's weird, just looks like a car that desperately needs lowering, obviously the car want built for that, but it looks like a really high car

i have the new focus, but i'm not overly keen on it.
Facelift Fiesta looks like a fish! I hate the flattened lights at the front, the pre-facelift looks so much smoother.

Not liking new fords at all lately. Seen the new focus st for the first time the other day on the road, looked like any other focus to me, Not like the previous ST where it stood out a little.

I do like the new ST, especially in blue... but it's five doors only therefore it sucks

I saw a transit custom today, don't know the difference but the interior looks useless compared to the previous shape.

Meant to ask.
What is at the back? I've seen the woman kick something in the advert.

it's a sensor that raises the boot automatically when you swipe your foot under the rear bumper.
obviously only if you have the key on you.
