It is an amazing car. Ive really enjoyed the test drive, but went for something else at the end (Last July). The price put me off unfortunatly. 34-36k is S3/A35 territory and Fords nowhere near them. Its rare tho. I like that. I have met only one in dorset soo far. I have an I30 Fastback N if you ever wanna make a comparison video and live around.

I doubt there's something under the bonnet to pump the noise into the interior. The US MK3 had that, the euro models always only had fake engine noise played through the speakers.
@otrreviewsanddetailing9962
@otrreviewsanddetailing9962 2 жыл бұрын
Turn of phrase I used The system is a sound synthesiser which produces artificial noise into the cabin via the speaker system which can be de-activated via Forescan software

I am thinking of buying one for me. Because I do a lot of miles, I was thinking about diesel 😅 One thing worries me, those bucket seats , are they painful during the long journeys? I am a big guy 130 kg, with big legs 😊

I’m 6 foot 120KG and I find the bucket seats very comfortable indeed I cover 15-18K a year and as much as it’s not cheap to run, I can honestly say it isn’t awful I get between 280 and 325 miles a tank. I’d highly recommend the Petrol as I haven’t tested the diesel But as far as seats go I have no issues with them mines set perfect for me with the lumbar support and just bliss

@@srdjanpantic3836 it is expensive yes but there are some amazing second hand deals for cars with 2-4000 miles on sitting at 24-26K Mines valued at 21K with 17,000 miles on, for me I don’t have any issues with the build quality inside certainly better than fiesta, I like the simplicity of the cabin and setup as well, for me I had a few electronic gremlins (a few people are) but I expected this, nothing that stopped the car and all were resolved by a hard reset when it went for service :) I have no complaints a very well rounded car just a shame on the price but as before some good second hand deals out there.
