Default new ford focus for me

I am just about to order my xr5 turbo focus in frozen white.

I was just wondering what your opinions of the car are.

I think the facelift looks great and i know the engine is near perfect.

Thanks

Antony

I think the facelift model looks very nice indeed.

I saw that Ford had added Frozen White to the new XR5 as well, that will look absolutely superb in that colour imo ....

Congrats Antony, enjoy.

White is making a big comeback as a performance colour in the UK
