Autocar have put a first drive up online today, worth a read:http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-review/ford/b-max/first-drives/first-drive-review-ford-b-max-10-ecoboost-titanium
Should I buy one?
As usual, it will be necessary to test the class contenders to decide exactly how Ford's new B-Max fares against its rivals, but the superb baby petrol engine (and its economy), the excellent rear seat access of the pillarless body, the suspension suppleness and the fantastic array of equipment make this a powerful contender among city cars. It seems more than likely that we have a new class leader.
