what of them guys?

looking at maybe a 13/14 plate 7k figure. Reviews are giving them the 4 out 5 stars but what's it like living with them. The ones I can see are mostly the 125's. I'm not looking for a pocket rocket but I don't really want to be bored to death.

What kind of mpg did you get? I k ow it says 65 but honest john has them at mid 40's

Cheers guys. I am basically looking for a small hatch with good mpg to do roughly 8 to 10k a year in for about 7k. Wanting to replace my 09 plate 2.3 auto mondeo titanium x which is currently returning roughly 24 mpg. So even at 8k miles a year its still costing a small fortune on petrol.

I do a lot of short runs on long runs I get very low 30's. If there is something wrong I wouldn't know where to look. No warning lights etc full service history from ford.

Thanks for the info guys. Looking around it seems they are bad for the coolant pipe leading to the turbo corroding. Not a big fix but a fix and potential new engine none the less.

Mpg could be better as always. I know ford have always been on the lower end of the mpg tables but still better than what I get just now.
