Thanks, boys. It's supposed to be ready to go by Friday (better be...) - the only reason we couldn't get it straightaway is they didn't have a hatchback in silver in that dealership, and had to get it from a sister yard. Apparently, despite all the new and funky colours, people only want silver, white and grey.
Looking forward to trying it out myself, actually. The car sold itself to the Mrs. Her test drive lived up to its looks, even without considering all the modern bling like voice control etc. She also feels it isn't that much smaller than her 2003 Corolla. Presumably, newer Corollas are bigger, as these things tend to grow over the years. She says my Focus feels heavy and cumbersome by comparison.
