Yeah, South African Focus is OK, if you compare it to an FG Falcon for example, but compared to the Fiesta its crap.

Thats three examples so far, I've had two and another poster just up before my post is another.

My wipers hit on the edge of the bonnet when facing up hill for some reason if they're going.

The trim on the top of the steering column wasn't fitted correctly, the driver seat is creaking when you change gears, blown injector return line, split injector seal on injector 3 on this particular car.

The other Focus, it wouldn't start every now and again, it would just keep cranking, you had to crank it a few times, key to off, then to ignition then try start it again and it would fire.

Both Focus also had out of round tyres from the factory.
