tip-top condition. A recent survey suggested that many motorists drive a perilous tightrope, failing to service their vehicle before embarking on a long journey or trip. But preparing your vehicle for a hot and
dusty summer trip is vital to lessen the odds of a breakdown caused by the strain of a hard tvinter and the summer's stop-go traffic. The greatest cause of summer breakdowns
is an overheating engine. Motorists should check the level, condition and concentration of their coolant, and make sure there are no leaks in the radiator. Other to keep an eye on are: • Tyres - check the recommended pres
sure; look for uneven wearing and cuts and nicks in the sidewall; ensure the spare and jack are in good condition. O Brakes - they should be inspected by an
expert every 15,000 miles or every six months. A sponginess in the brake pedal or a tendency to pull to one side should be investigated.
• Battery - ensure a trained mechanic
checks connections and th a t it is fully charged. • Lights - clean dirt and insects from all
lenses and inspect all lights and bulbs. > Windscreen wipers - replace worn blades
and ensure there is a full reservoir of washer solution. • Engine performance - correct driveabili-
•^ ty problems (hard starts, rough idling, stalling, diminished power) at a good garage and replace air, fuel and cabin filters.

orange paintwork, the 217 b.h.p. Focus ST sat low arid purposeful on its 18 in. cast aluminium wheels, 225/40 tyres wrapped like painted liquorice around them. An aggressive font spoiler
with a big air intake was complemented by deep sill extensions and a rear under bumper assembly that inten sified the effect of the car being sucked to the ground. Other sporty touches
included a subtle root spoil er and twin exhausts. Motive power comes cour tesy of, for the first time in a Ford, a five-cylinder turbo charged engine borrowed from Volvo. Despite offering a broadly
similar turbo-charged power output to the original Focus RS and having drive direct ed to the front wheels like the Focus RS, Ford insiders claim the latest ST will demolish the RS’s time around the Nurburgring by

a full 12 seconds, courtesy of its superior cornering ability and improved torque. Early performance data suggests a sprint to 60 m.p.h. in just over six seconds and a top speed in the region of 140 m.p.h. There is a lot to like about
the basic dimensions of the Focus ST. “The profile fea tures two distinctive lines”, said the Director of Design for Ford of Europe. “First is the sharp crease that comes very tightly around the front wheel arch and actual ly runs the full length of the
vehicle, which I believe expresses a ‘milled out of solid metal’ look. “Secondly, the very sharp
line from the centre of the nose back over the whole length of the vehicle that highlights the fast lines of the A-pillar and C-pillar.”
