So it may look like a can of Tango but why on earth after all the Ford Focus updates are they still sticking those pesky reverse lights into the bottom of the bumper.

I've lost count of the amount of Ford Focuses that have almost reversed into me in car parks as I could not see the lights. The light cluster is around the back window, surely they could have put them there??? !!!

Quickest can of tango ive ever seen! Did they not look in the mirror?
The new Focus is an evolution of the original, which means the basic design features are still there, which includes the daft reverse lights. They are there though because the purpose of them is to allow you to see when you are reversing in the dark and putting them down there allows for the best throw of light.

Well my car has reverse lights in the normal place and they light up behind me pretty well at night and also I look behind me which helps.

People tend to drive with their foglights on and that doesn't do much to light up the road either.

Personally I think ford have abandoned them where they were as they couldn't be bothered with re-locating them.
Oh Duhh, Is that what I'm doing wrong?!!! I only use mirrors when reversing, its better than guessing with windows!
