The only reason u would buy the K5 over the Ford is because you need the space, everything else the focus is just better ( FC, handling, NVH, servicing wise i am not so sure, my ford is doing just fine ) and of course u can afford the extra 15k over the Ford.

Aspects which the K5 has an advantage over the Focus:

1) Being a D segment, the K5 offers much more interior & boot space
2) Exterior design (subjective)
3) The K5 has a higher NHTSA safety rating compared to the Focus (4 stars)
4) Unlimited mileage warranty

Not very major factors but still factors nevertheless.  biggrin.gif

Yes I agree on all your points above, the main selling point is the SPACE it offers. For sure u will be more comfortable in a more spacious car, exterior design the K5 really looks good, but the focus is not ugly either laugh.gif . The unlimited mileage warranty is another important point to consider as well thumbup.gif but now that the latest focus has 200k km warranty i think that's more than enough for 5 years of driving thumbup.gif
