No I didn't, but the motor is not an issue. If the Cruze had Climate control and the dealer allowed us to option a different wheel (CDX) we'd be driving one now. Black sedan, de-badged, possibly with a 25% tint.

The Focus has us hooked with the extras; electric seat, Climate control, and you've got to compare shutting doors between the two vehicles.

The Cruze has us with how quiet it is on the highway, the 7 inch Sat Nav and the excellent service from City Holden.

Ford need address some minor issues with their salespeople.
