I picked mine up on Wednesday. Every bit as good as my Test drive. Just getting to grips with all the settings, what you can and can't do with Ford pass connect etc. Still checking out the drive types as well. Well impressed at the moment.

Love it - just over a thousand miles, love every minute and shocked at how much petrol it's saving me (and I'm no miss daisy type either)

I was getting max 39.9 out of my eco - my commute is 80 miles a day - 3 days a week. (Work from home 2). The difference is considerable! £40 in the tank on the eco would just about fill it half from 50miles in the tank and last according to the range, 260ish. Now it fills it almost to the top and lasts 370ish and it does last too!

Pre-collision assist warning is fun first time it appears! Also loving the distance thing making you aware how close you are to the one in front.

Cruise control is fun when someone pulls out in front of you and the brakes dig in.

Oh, the 155 is lots of fun! Need to think about driving it sensibly soon, but not too soon.

Totally agree, love putting it in sports mode when at the lights to go on to a motorway slip road and just flooring it. Took me by surprise first time compared to the 140ps in my focus and that wasn't slow. 👍👍👍

Intelligent cruise control is interesting. Sets speed limit based on the road signs.

Just hope it doesn’t pick up spurious speeds from the back of European trailers, like my Kuga has a tendency to do.
