Default Has the coupe cabriolet been discontinued?

Hi everyone,

Just realised that it seems that ford australia have discountinued the focus coupe cabriolet.There is an LV version out in the UK,but the LV version is not shown on ford australias website.The XR5t and cabriolet are shipped from the same plant i believed,so it seems the cabriolet has been discontiuned.

Anyone know for sure?,i mean i dont like the car very much but in LV it is actually reasonable,and my Girl fried loves it,so thought i would put it out there.

Thanks,

Jeremy.W

The way things are at the moment and the FoMoCo consolidation program, it's more than likely and probably a sensible move.

Yeh its a good move,however at the right time if ford got of their ***** and did some good marketing for once it would really move.

And you can get an LT for a stupid price so she should seriously consider one!

Yeah, they're hugely overpriced in my opinion, like the astra convertible...

I agree totally,I mean when for a bit more you can get an VW eos,which is light years above both the focus and astra cc,in design,and looks in my opinion.Oh forgot to meantion RESALE VALUES!!!

When they first came out,they had leaking problems,due to the sealing design of the roof.They are pretty solid now,and yes gutless.Have decided against it,thank goodness,i hate the back,bubble but :.Things are going too well : .
