This is the engine to go for if you want more potent performance. It has 153bhp and sprints from 0-62mph in 8.4sec and comes with a seven-speed automatic gearbox.

Hatchback

Ford builds some of the most popular cars in the UK, including the Fiesta and Focus hatchbacks.

This success is partly down to longevity and the fact that there’s a Ford dealer around every corner. However, it’s also because Fords tend to offer good value and be among the best cars in their respective classes to drive.

The company’s huge range also helps; it offers everything from the small – but surprisingly practical – Ka+ to the large and lavishly equipped Edge SUV.

Meanwhile, other highlights of the range include the S-Max and Galaxy people carriers, the Mondeo executive car and the Ranger pick-up.

FOCUS

Titanium is our favourite Focus trim. It adds LED rear lights, dual-zone climate control, keyless entry and start, and a much larger 13.2in touchscreen infotainment system with upgraded built-in sat-nav, DAB radio, Bluetooth and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto smartphone mirroring.

Ford Focus ST

The Ford Focus ST is not as fun to drive as the Honda Civic Type R, but it is more entertaining than many other rivals – as well as being competitively priced and well equipped. Plus, it's just as practical as the regular Focus, making it perfect for performance-hungry families.

<h2>What we're looking for:</h2><ul><li>Engaging handling </li> <li>Thrilling performance </li> <li>A characterful engine with an enticing soundtrack </li> <li>Reasonable running costs </li> <li>Not hard to live with day to day</li></ul>

A popular choice with UK buyers since the days of the original Volkswagen Golf GTI, the hot hatchback mixes everyday practicality with higher performance and the sort of handling and agility that’s ideally suited to British roads. A good hot hatch should be fun and, since it’s likely to be your daily drive, it should also deliver respectable running costs.
