Different segment la brotha... here don't zha back Ford owners la, VW can lah ahaha... the Fiesta is a great car on its own. Other than back seat comfort which I agree with you.

luckily i'm not fat    it's just perfect for me and it works like semi bucket seat to me 

yes i rike it!

@ Bliz; i m amazed as well.

i m not sure if different diesel from different brand affects the FC/Power or not. but i m using ESSO.

and i kinda converted my closed box to an open pod too
i feel more power, pickup. i notice the FC is quite good as well. perhaps more air to the engine?

plus i can always hear tat sucking n whooossssshhhh sound heheh..
latest FC i had was 688.8km on esso RM 87 @ 48.33L

let me go take a pix of the air box for ya.

If you study internal combustion engines, you will know that a turbodiesel engine will always have better fuel efficiency and consumption than a petrol engine. Heck, a turbodiesel engine is the most fuel saving among all the other types of engines. Not taking hybrid cars into account. So, not much discussion there.

We have people reportedly going up to 1000km full tank on a Focus while on a Fiesta I think the best someone ever hit was 600+km. You are also comparing a 80k price range car to >100k car... 

Its really up to the driver/ user la. If I had the budget I would go for a Polo GTI compared with a Focus, although Focus has better fc.

ehmm.. hve u guys try playing CD on ur player??

i have 2 mp3 cd. doesnt seem to work

only can play audio CD?

ehm.. when i spoke to the manager of the sdac, he sed probably mid year? or even later.
IF they bring in the new focus anytime soon, it would be the PETROL version first, den down the road only introduce the TDCI version i think.

so tats y i decided to get the tdci now n duwan to wait for it.

n besides the white tdci looks super fierce like a raging bull lol.

My driving style is more towards milking as many kilometer per litre as possible in the most efficient manner. That's why I don't press the pedal harder than what is required. And I'm not sure if it will place unnecessary stress to the engine if the pedal was being pressed hard constantly on L.

Well, tracking my KM/liter is like a game to me. Always trying to beat or equal my historical stats. I have an obsession over this kind of stuff.

Unfortunately for the past 4 weeks it has been raining like nobody's business. So many traffic jams because of waterlogged roads during peak hours (everyone suddenly slows down and causes a backlog of cars, lorries and buses). Even my FC for Shell has taken a hit; should be around 16+ km/l but now it's 15+ km/l. That's back to like Esso standards. But then, on a like-for-like basis, I might be hitting only 14+ km/l on Esso under the same traffic conditions.

Nice !
I have tested drive Fiesta today though I am a Forte owner but always appreciate good car no matter what brand it is.

The handling was great, but maybe I am used to the 2.0l power that I am having, the 1.6 didn't satisfy me.

But, the Ford Focus TDCI is amazing (by looking at the stats) + the interior quality.

Moon,

How is the car so far? I am so tempted to get this diesel car.

focus tdci although dated interior is a fantastic drive !

get one !

woohoo!!!! I'VE PASS 700KM MARK!

earlier before leaving to JB from kl, i m having quarter ++ tank left @ 525.3km on meter.

after reach jb/yong peng i m @ 751.8KM!! with 36km left

I am driving a forte 2.0l.

Moon,

Your statistic is amazing.

lol.. keep to speed limit la. 110-130

i sked samans la
could do better!, get my engine run in longer first
yup all it takes is 1 test drive

Yup. Mine is Fiesta bro.
I am using fully synthetic oil. This alone already RM240.
Labour charge and one thing. Cannot remember.

-pWs-

hey bliz, how come u didnt join the ford driving for life event??

we had a blast there man!

Saw an ultra cool focus RS 2 doors green color with double digit number plate in PG island.  This is rarer than Ferrari!! Selangor plate

Forgot to thumbs up to owner

best ever Ford Focus TDCI promo now?

anyone can enlighten?

can its straight line speed beats a Mazda 3 2.0?

0-100 kmh,  i think  mazda 3 got the advantage due to responsive petrol engine

but during roll start , surely M3 gonna be beaten..

last week , it quite fun to 'play play' with 520i but stock TDCi run  up to 200kmh only
