The All New Ford Focus Estate

Published Date: 20th Dec 2011

After a trip to the supermarket to buy enormous amounts of food and drink for the festive period, I realised that my small hatchback was not designed to hold much more than 6 standard carrier bags without shoehorning the boot lid. Maybe the time has now come to upgrade to an estate car to service the growing family, dog, football kits and the food mountain I seem to purchase each week. UK Car Discount have some fantastic savings on all vehicles and these vehicles are currently on offer at www.uk-car-discount.co.uk.

One of our favourites is the All New Ford Focus Estate. It is the combination of styling, intuitive technologies and precision-engineered performance that makes the All New Ford Focus Estate deliver a truly addictive driving experience and thanks to the car’s advanced Ford ECOnetic Technology, the All New Ford Focus Estate offers low CO2 emissions and outstanding fuel efficiency

Amongst the many features of the vehicle the Active Park Assist is very clever technology in that it first checks if a parking space is big enough then automatically steers you in. It also has the Low Speed Safety System which is designed to help you in slow moving traffic at speeds under 20mph. If the systems sensors detect the car in front has unexpectedly stopped, it brakes automatically. So you think that is clever, what about the Lane Departure Warning. It alerts you before you drift out of lane by vibrating your steering wheel. The vibration can be adjusted to three levels of sensitivity and a visual alert pops up on your driver information cluster.

If you need more convincing then maybe the discount from UK Car Discount will tip the scales. Have a look at the deals on the All New Ford Focus Estate today and if you prefer the larger estate car, have a look at the Ford Mondeo Estate.
