Hi All,
Just ordered a new Focus Titanium last weekend. The dealer didn't have one for a test drive but we took a Sport for a drive and what a great little car! This is actually a surprise Christmas present for my wife so I'm really hoping it will be here before Christmas. We like the Candy Red colour and it's on a boat at the moment, so it's due to land soon. I thought the extra cost was worth it for the additional features the Titanium has. Will post some pics once it's delivered.

They are a great car except for he troublesome auto box they have in them. My sister bought a titanium in the same color as you, but like many others she has had, and still has problems with the gearbox even after having the clutches replaced at 15k.
Other than that they are great little car for the ladies, hope you have better luck.

^^^^ Yep, thanks for that feedback. I did do some research on the gearbox issues and that is the only question mark hanging over the car for me. I also decided to take the extended warranty as some further insurance.
This is the 4th car we've bought from Sinclair Ford and we always have the cars serviced there; we've always been looked after with warranty work (which up to date has not been much) so I'm fairly confident we'll be OK should the worst happen.
