Planty02 had one, it was pretty good IIRC.

I have a 1.9 Zetec, next model down I think, and it goes well

we had a few at work people had as company cars,
all had their problems, like shitting the turbos and eating the bits,
and at a certain age boost pipes dying weekly till they were all renewed.
but what car doesn't have it's problems these days.
other than that they were ok,

Aye, iirc he had a problem with the flywheel or something as I asked for advice on the 1.8TDCi engine before I got that ridiculous Punto

If they are anything like the other diesel Focus I've been in that are that shape the engine is ridiculously noisey and the seats break your back.

It does, it has the same headlights and foglights, it just doesn't have the lower front grill or the wheels.
Looks a lot better than an lx model....

Well, aye, it looks like the ST170. The not much spoken of due to it not really being a performance Ford, Ford?

ST have colour coded rub strips. these do not.

And yes the wheels and engine are different.
