The 2.3 engine is a big improvement - it's fast!

Like new body shape & lower suspension, No decisions to make on extras as everything included. I was warned by Ford salesman to be careful as it goes round corners very quickly and can confirm that is correct. Not so keen on all the new IT functions - you need to be IT literate to get the best out of it. Electronic handbrake takes a bit of getting used to but once mastered it is good. Sat nav screen now above dash so if driving into strong sunlight you can't see it! Lock still lets it down so parking in bays not a one turn operation in tight car parks. Need to be aware of cameras on motorways as acceleration in all gears is exceptional and can very easily hit 100mph without realising it!.
