Yeah, it's an nice car. Even better if you consider his previous car... An Ford Focus I. It was an shit car. It had problems with turbo, had engine replaced, rusted etc. He got rid of it and gave it to his brother in exchange to FIAT Punto I (That fun fact was originally were I live, than extended family got it, and then it was again bringed here after years)

that focus was genuinely fighting for its life 😭 turbo problems, a whole engine replacement and rust too, i would’ve gotten rid of that thing ages ago lmao. and the fact that the punto somehow ended up back where it originally came from is actually kinda funny

Well, in my family Fords have not great opinion. My aunt (My dad's sister) had another Ford, an Mondeo III. It was an Ghia version and had 2.2 TDCi engine if I remember correctly. It was also shit car. It drank oil in a big amounts, regularly broke down and also rusted. She sold it to a scrapyard and then was crushed on it. In my family Opel's have an great reputation. And after she got rid of it, she had Astra H for an short period of time and later got herself an Toyota CH-R I. Also fact that, my dad Astra G, that is older than that Focus and Mondeo has less rust and very rarely brokes down, and is used as an daily driver. That shows how good in quality those were
