2020 Ford Focus ST 2.3T EcoBoost Hatchback

Description

So, I’ve been looking at cars for a while now and finally found one that just feels right — this 2020 Focus ST. It’s agate black with those matte anthracite 19-inch wheels, and honestly, it looks sharp from every angle.

The engine’s got 277bhp — the most powerful version of the ST ever — and it gets from 0 to 60 in about 5.7 seconds. Top speed’s limited to 155mph, but on the highway, it’s averaging 34 to 45mpg, which is pretty solid for a car that looks this cool.

Inside, it’s got Recaro seats — black leather and grey alcantara — with power adjustment and heated seats, plus a heated steering wheel. The back seats are comfortable too, and there’s room for three people. The dashboard has LED lighting, a head-up display, sat nav, DAB radio, Bluetooth, and parking sensors. All the usual stuff, but it feels more premium than most cars of this type.

I got it from a second owner in Bathgate who had it for over two years. He reached out through our Bye Buy Motors section and we agreed on a fair price. We picked it up from his place, and it’s been fully sorted now.

It’s had six services — at 3,474, 10,018, 17,511, 27,503, 40,398, and 45,681 miles — and it’s been through a full 12-month MOT with no advisories. We also did a 200-point health check, replaced the front and rear brake discs and pads, and fitted new tyres. The body was checked through our shop too — no dents, no rust, just solid.

It’s ready to drive right now — no delays, no fuss.

If you’re interested, you can reserve it online with a £250 deposit that’s fully refundable. We’ve been pretty confident about how we prepare cars — if you find a similar one elsewhere with the same level of prep and service support, we’ll match the price and give you £500 back.

We’re based at Redgate Lodge in Mere, Wiltshire — not North Shields anymore, so that’s a key detail to know. The site is on Elm Road, Unit 4, and we’re open Monday to Saturday.

We’ve got a full Bosch service centre on site, a bodyshop, and a car spa — everything you’d expect from a proper garage. We only use quality parts and do everything in full detail, so you can see exactly what’s been done.

I’ve driven it a few times — it handles well, the seats are comfy, and it’s just that kind of car you want to keep around.

If you’re thinking about a car that’s not just flashy but actually feels reliable and well cared for, this one’s worth a look.

P.S. I’ll be honest — I didn’t expect to find a car like this in Wiltshire, but I’m glad I did.
