Description

This Focus ST-3 blends everyday usability with an engaging driving character. The punchy 2.0T EcoBoost engine and sharpened ST suspension deliver lively responses and confident handling, making motorway miles and B-road fun equally rewarding. The manual gearbox gives the driver a connected feel, while the chassis balances sportiness with composure.

Inside, the cabin feels purposeful and well-equipped, with supportive Recaro seats and a clear, driver-focused layout. Practical hatchback packaging, generous service history and a fresh MOT/service promise make this a sensible choice for someone seeking both performance and everyday reliability.
