Pros: A good compact car, just for a woman.
Cons: The rubber is on inside, and so in wet weather, thresholds are always dirty. My previous car was Toyota Corolla - never had such problems. Also a bit noisy inside, because of plastic parts in doorway

Pros: The ideal car both inside and outside city, because small, maneuvering, economical and comfortable enough. I dont get tired even in long-term trips. For long journeys there is desirable elbow support, which this class of car (second-hand) is rare option. If you want to reach 4.3 average consumption from 1 litre ECOboost engine, you will have to try very hard. Let us be realistic - on average below 5,1 litres will be difficult to crawl. After 50 000 km nothing rattles, rolling perfect. With an engine no problems at all. 1L ECOboost is recognised as one of Ford's most successful engine models, which was gutted after tests over 300 000 km and no critical issues were identified. If you are over 1.8m, than behind you can only sit children, or you will go closer to steering wheel. Anyway, I'm Happy Happy Happy with his small compact car... in addition, it is a visually attractive.
Cons: Not much else to add a negative way, except that stated average fuel consumption in 4.3L is a rather utopic.

Pros: Good handling. Sturdy suspension. After 240,000 km, still have the original lever bushings, although a lot of driving on dirt roads. Original clutch still on the robot-gearbox. Good visibility. Rust-resistant bodywork throughout.
Cons: Loud, no sound insulation. The robot gearbox is twitchy, but you can get used to handling it. Eats oil - about 100 g per 1000 km.
