No doubt they're very capable cars and probably great fun to drive, I genuinely despise the interior and exterior styling. Its far too garish for my liking. I know they have a large following, but I still dislike the mk5 Escort Cosworth for this very reason. I was barely into teens when they were a must have, and whilst most my age loved them, I thought they were trying too hard. The Focus will never attain the classic status as those past have for the fact that the syling whilst appealing in the 90s, is very outdated now. Coupled with stupid paint colours, I'd certainly never own one. At the end of the day its a Focus, a sheep in wolves clothing........
