| RELIABILITY AND QUALITY RATING: |
 |
Interior quality is significantly improved over the old model, leaving the Ford able to cut it with the better cars in this class for the first time in a long time. The top of the dashboard and upper areas of trim are finished in soft-touch plastics, oval air-vents have chrome-effect surrounds, which gives a refined feel, and fit and finish is good, although some of the available colour schemes (like a grey-blue dash upper with beige lower and black bits here and there) can look a little clumsy. The lower they are to the floor, however, the harder and thinner the cabin plastic becomes. A substantial centre console rather than just a gap between the seats makes the cabin feel more cockpit-like and snug, lifting the perception of quality.
