Well, Focus will lose its rating this year as the rest of the world gets a new platform (shared with Volvo V40 and Mazda 3, NA gets a nose job & new dash) I sort of liked the current one in 5 door hatch. It stood out a bit & handled well for an econo-hatch. Did NOT like the build quality. 1300 miles on a 8000 mile old rental in the UK & the thing was squeaking & rattling (interior plastic panels). Back in Can., a buddy bought one & front wheel bearings had to be replaced at 30,000Km. I'll stick to my old Passat
