I had a ST Line Focus loan car with 1.5L 3 cyl turbo and 8sp auto, too expensive for what you get.
Ford is poor value for money these days.
No manual is a killer for me and the old man, we prefer changing our own gears in our small dailies.

Yeah I'll be sorry to see it go, it really was a driver's car.
Not 100% suited to Australian roads, but I loved driving it.
I ended up doing 99% of the driving in it by myself (and not much at all this year due to COVID) as my partner thinks it's:
- Too uncomfortable
- Too 'bouncy'
- Too hard to reach the seatbelt
- Too easy to get wedged between the back seat and the front seat if you slip off the seat off getting out of the back (don't ask, long story).
Plus I drive like a hoon in it, apparently.
...although she also levels that one at me when I drive her Mazda 2, so maybe it's just me and small nippy cars
It's only done ~29,000km in four years...
