Car Deal of the Day: Bag yourself a Ford Focus before it disappears for only £222 a month
Despite its advancing years, the Ford Focus is still a very desirable and fun-to-drive family hatchback. It’s our Deal of the Day for 27 January
- Fun to drive
- Sporty design
- £221.98 a month
Ford's focus is very much on building a range of electric SUVs at the moment, which means the Grim Reaper is waiting in the wings for models such as our Deal of the Day.
The good old Ford Focus is losing the battle against more fashionable high-riders, but there's still time to bag yourself a deal.
Through the Auto Express Find a Car service, Lease Car UK Ford Leasing is offering the Focus 1.0-litre EcoBoost Hybrid mHEV ST-Line for a mere £221.98 a month. There's an initial payment of £2,963.75 required, and the deal is for 48 months and 5,000 miles a year.
Should you want to drive your Focus beyond that mileage cap – and we wouldn't blame you – you can bump up the limit to 8,000 a year for just over £12 a month.
The Focus has always been the pick of the family hatchback class when it comes to driving thrills, and the current one is still about as fun as they come. Its taut handling means driving down country roads can be a real laugh, while sharp steering and a compliant ride are just the icing on the cake.
The mild-hybrid 1.0-litre three-cylinder engine is a good fit for such a sporty little hatchback. With 123bhp, it's a punchy performer and is works well with the standard six-speed manual gearbox. It's also pretty efficient – Ford claims over 54mpg on average.
If this wasn't tempting enough, then the deal is for the pick of the Focus range. In ST-Line trim, with its racy-looking bumpers and body styling, it does a good impression of looking like a junior Focus ST hot hatch; it feels like one too thanks to sports suspension.
LED headlights, keyless entry and go, and front and rear parking sensors, along with a 13.2-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, complete the package.
