TOUCH UP PAINT PEN FOR FORD DESERT ISLAND BLUE METALLIC FIESTA FOCUS EDGE FIESTA ETC (PAINT + LACQUER)

Product Information

The 1.5 EcoBlue diesel engine featured in our Ford Focus ST Line X is the most economical of the bunch. It may not have the performance credentials of the 1.5 Ecoboost, but it would easily beat it on economy figures in a game of top trumps. And it’s because we spent so long looking at it that we noticed the rear door line is remarkably similar to a BMW 1 Series. Fitting really, because this new Focus is gunning for the likes of the BMW 1 Series, VW Golf and Mercedes-Benz A-Class. Interior Finish To live with, the Ford Focus ST Line X is a great companion. Aside from a seemingly longer bonnet than before, it’s easy to judge while driving.

The leather featured throughout the cabin is of good quality. There’s even a leather panel at either side of the centre console where your knee rests, which is a lovely touch.Solid = A simple body colour with no additives in the paint. Usually comprises 3 coats, these being a primer, then the paint, then a clear, protective lacquer. Solid paints aren’t particularly shiny and are normally the only standard/no-cost colours offered by manufacturers. The total amount of deposit you will put down on your finance agreement including your cash deposit, any part exchange equity and any applicable VAT (for commercial vehicles) The new Ford Focus is the most technologically-advanced to date. Standard specification of the Focus ST Line X includes, amongst other things: front and rear parking sensors, power-adjust driver’s seat, heated front seats, dual-zone climate control, keyless start, 8-inch touchscreen and cruise control with speed limiter. The model being tested here is the Ford Focus ST Line X. It is the sportiest-looking model, barring the Focus ST which will join the range later this year.

This is one of Ford’s more drastic re-stylings, but it has worked a treat. The overall body shape is sleeker than the outgoing car, with softer, smoother lines. The previous Powershift automatic gearboxes have never really been good enough when compared to the likes of a Volkswagen DSG unit or Audi S-Tronic. Now though, an automatic Ford Focus is easily recommendable. Ride/HandlingThere are 9 main paint options for the Puma, comprising 2 solid paints, 5 metallic paints, 1 matte-effect ‘pastel’ paint and 1 pearlescent paint; above the standard colour offered on most models, Ford bundles these into 2 overarching categories called Premium and Exclusive – although only 1 colour, the pearlescent, is actually exclusive to 1 model only. Besides the exterior hues, we also outline the various interior upholsteries that go with these body colours. Paint Types But then again, it’s not all about speed. Some people will choose the ST Line X because it looks tremendous, but the 120PS diesel engine will be plenty. Good job really, because this was the area where the old car felt most dated. It was due an update and an upgrade, and Ford has delivered it. It’s worth noting that this is under the new WLTP testing regime, which seems to be producing more realistic economy figures.
