Nissan Almera or Ford Focus

Got the Focus. Love it so far.

On the verge of buying a car, and to be honest the Focus seems to have won the battle for my money.

To be honest I didn't even consider the Almera. Just no interest in it.

The other cars considered werea Toyota Auris, Ford C-Max.

I am thinking about buying a 2006 or 2007 Focus. Can 3 kids car seats be fitted in the back?

 

[Jay1981]

Yes. Loads of room for them.

Just acquired a 2010 Focus TDCi.

Only had a week of driving, but great so far.

Its depends on the age of the kids and their type of car seats. if its only 1 booster seat I'd say no, but you might get away with a baby + 2 booster seats.

Best to go and try it out to be sure...

Yes. Loads of room for them.

No there isn't! As Suzie says it depends on the car seats you mean. If it is more than one baby seat (as opposed to booster seats) then you won't fit three in the back.

My husband has a Ford Focus(a 1.6 00) and it's brutal on petrol. My Hyundai Accent(1.4) gets about twice as much mileage out of the same amount of petrol as his does.

Maybe he drives it harder than you?

No car will be economical if you horse it.
