Ford focus vs nissan almera?

Question

i want to buy a second hand car and have got down to 2 cars.

what is the best to buy from these 2 cars?

Answer 1

ive driven and repaired every car in the focus class and it is the best.

the nissan does not compare.

Answer 2

both reliable, ford wins on the handling, cos the steering is hydraulic,and has a good racing pedigree.

If you do get a focus, try to get a german one...nuff said

Answer 3

I used to have a nissan trust me they are not good it broke down ford focus are cute simple and everybody like them  

Answer 4

Nissan

Answer 5

We bought a brand new ford focus (as in it had four miles on it and plastic on the seats) it was a 2004. I suggest you avoid that year as we were told by the Ford techs at the main plant they had issues with the engine. It would cut out and die. The State finally got involved and it was taken back under the Lemon Law and we got all of our money back, because Ford was unable to fix it. We were told it was a major problem with that year. I have a used older Nissan now and it is great! Check into warranties and see what each one will cover. My Nissan has over 225k on it and is running strong (except for needing to replace a alternator) Also, go by the mileage...which one has less?  

Answer 6

Nissan Almera - the Focus is wrongly touted as the 'best car in it's class', but the running costs of the Nissan will be far less over a period, and the Nissan will prove far more reliable.

Not a pretty car in either case though!

Answer 10

Surely the Focus: it's one of the most popular car all around the world. The Edge Design is actually nice (even after 10 years) and the Focus has suffered of really few problems rather then the Nissan..
