The Ford Focus is the UK’s best-loved car by far – each year it outsells the rest by a country mile and it’s done so every year since its launch in 1998. So to celebrate its tenth birthday Ford have given us the sharpest, greenest, coolest model yet. While it’s still instantly recognisable as a Focus the all-new ‘kinetic design’ brings trendy creases and lines to the body panels, echoing its Mondeo sibling. But they’re not just for fashion’s sake, because Ford have hidden extra sound proofing under the skin for a quieter ride.
