And you've nailed the diesel engine in one..........it's all about the torque, and that's what makes driving fun.

So welcome to the Forums.... lots of good people here (and a few screwballs!!LOL)and a fair bit of knowledge amongst us all....but you'll officially be the first Focus TDCi owner here! Congratulations!!

One tip....don't be scared to ask the stupid questions....they're often the most important ones
Hey mate, thanks for the warm welcome. Much appreciated

Being an all auto driver up until now I was afraid to go manual at first because I thought I would get sick of it. But I love cars and driving and auto ****es me off so I forced myself into it, glad to know I won't regret it now so I'm happy.

The only thing I'm unsure about is the servicing costs, I sincerely hope I don't get slugged there because it defeats the purpose of owning a diesel. Ah well gotta take some risks in life I suppose.

Glad to be on board!
