    Lewis Hamilton is a formula 1 racing driver. ;) He's 23, and winning the world championship. He's been racing since he was about 4 years old (karting) and i doubt at 20 he was driving a car as powerful as the ST.

    (the other guy is Richard Hammond) ;)

    The focus SR won't be out till Spring 2009 but would be MUCH more suitable.

    It's a 1.4 (the ST is 2.2) and has extras like alloys and air con but not the power iunder the bonnet.

    Don't think MrsE's daughter can wait that long.

    Edit - the RS will be in the USA ;)

    Actually now you mention it, someone said that ford are bringing out a new Focus at the end of the year MrsE - your daughter may want to wait, its an SR. It might be nicer that the ST.

    And there is that Ford place near you, you may get a good deal from them.

    :rotfl: :rotfl:

    I thought you were taking the p1ss. Now I know you are.

    Still, Focus SR just right for a learner:D . You can just see the examiner's face.:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    No its definitely a Focus out in November I think.

    Still don't think what I drive is relevant.

    You drive a focus. You've already said on this thread :rolleyes:

    If you tell me what model it is, I can tell you how different the ST is.

    Or you could just carry on recommending completely inappropriate cars!

    Now I'm confused again. Jeannieblue makes a series of posts that I thought saw her tongue firmly in her cheek and then I get thanked, for pointing it out, by the people she has been, succesfully, winding up:confused: .

    Honda Jazz is very spacious BUT way out of daughter's price range, holds its value well.
