Anybody driven one of these on about a T reg plate sort of age? Wondering how they are to drive in terms of how comfortable they are, are they quiet inside?

Affordable family car?

Think it was the Ford Focus of its time.

I dont know about the brand new focus, but the original one is basically an escort anyway. The escorts are just better in some ways (Looks) but not as good in other ways (comfort, ride quality)
