    Has anyone noticed that the car he's driving at 3:03 is blue (you can tell by the strip of paint in the door jamb) and the exterior shots are all of a yellow-orange car?

      That’s what I was going to say.... I noticed the blue paint when he’s driving and then he’s standing by an Orange Fury.... 😂😂😂

    4:20 That's my choice colour. I love it.

    I've now had mine for a month and I'm very impressed. It's my third Focus ST (the previous ones were 2013 and 2017 models), and it's the best by a considerable margin. It sounds far better and it's great fun to drive. New features such as rev-matching are good, and (sorry to mention this if you only ever drive on deserted mountain roads), the adaptive cruise control and rear parking camera are useful in town. I like being able to set the driving mode to 'normal' for when my wife is with me and 'sport' when not. I look forward to every journey. If it's on your short list, make sure you have a test drive. I did, and I was lured away from the latest Type R.

      I would buy the Focus ST if Ford would sell it in America. What a shame.

    It's a paradise for mincecraft builders, owning a car like this just because of building pixels. I have noticed car does not have old style door locking mechanism. Ford mk2 and mk3 naming is confusing, these cars has a name of previous generation. Interesting is how they reached better grip.

    I like the looks of this one. Less yobbish even in orange

    • @tedtheturbot
      @tedtheturbot Před 5 lety +1

      yes and i like the look of the rear..and they'll be plenty of after market goodies to bump up the power

    I feel like With the previous generations Ford always took an element from the mk1, mk2 and added it on where as with the new 2019 model it’s like they just stole the design off a Peugeot or a KIA and said here we go, to actually put an ST badge on it as well, Lord knows what damage they will do to the RS I pray they don’t ruin that too.

      Well you don't need to worry about that, Ford have stated that they don't currently plan on developing a MK4 RS Focus.

    Ford should bring the Ford Focus ST hatchback to India 🇮🇳.

      how did this work out for you?

  • @andreiarama8745
    @andreiarama8745 Před 5 lety +2

    So basically if you are thinking about the diesel ST just buy the st-line 2.0 150hp and do a remap ...

    Sorry but the old focus is better looking

    • @stevemk4st649
      @stevemk4st649 Před 4 lety

      From a current MK3 owner who's just bought a MK4 I have to agree, but have you driven one?

  • @skyhigheagleer6
    @skyhigheagleer6 Před 5 lety

    And Ford don't charge extra for Android Auto or Apple Car Play

  • @HubschHubsch
    @HubschHubsch Před 4 lety

    one qeustion, why is this 40 euroes in Norway, check ford.no yourself

  • @ryang6397
    @ryang6397 Před 5 lety +7

    the same price as the much faster rs what the hell are they thinking. almost 10k more than the previous st. this is backwards not forwards. who would fall for this bs? its like the fools buying into apple, pay more for less

    • @skyhigheagleer6
      @skyhigheagleer6 Před 5 lety +2

      Called inflation matey

    • @stevemk4st649
      @stevemk4st649 Před 4 lety

      Except I've just traded my 17 plate ST3.5 for the MK 4 and now paying £20 month less on the PCP. Discounts are already there if you look.

  • @twoniu8830
    @twoniu8830 Před 5 lety +1

    tell me a reason buying this st instead of audi s3😂😂🤣🤣

    • @skyhigheagleer6
      @skyhigheagleer6 Před 5 lety +1

      Reliability

    • @xIcarus227
      @xIcarus227 Před 5 lety +6

      Because this is about 15k cheaper? Seriously, what kind of stupid question is that?
      Another reason would be that it's more fun. The S3 is quite boring to drive.

    • @mjyumping
      @mjyumping Před 5 lety +1

      This one has an ST badge, while the Audi hasn't.

    • @emailstomarek
      @emailstomarek Před 3 lety +1

      For starters it drives better in the corners and does better in moose test than s3

    • @benb1234
      @benb1234 Před 3 lety +1

      I know this is an old comment but they’re completely different categories of cars, yes they’re both hot hatches but so many differences, focus is a FWD manual car, whereas the s3 is an automatic 4WD car, not to mention the price difference 🤦‍♂️
