I paid £1550 for her, I thought it was a bargin.

Any comments? Would you say this was a good buy?

Its a 1.4 Zetec mate, Picks up a hell of a lot quicker than the old 1.4 Escort. I would like to know the BHP and 0 - 60 times if anyone has them.

I quite like the design, and shes happy with it

I know, its only an average of 13k a year millage, so its not too bad. Services all done at ford until 80k, and then done at a decent garage, with all the stamps, and recipts.

Its been looked after, and the interior is spotless, you would think its a 50k miler looking at her. The paint work is simply stunning.

I was looking at spending around £1500 on a tidy 5 door hatch, so it was exactly what i wanted to get her. The seats are a lot better than my 115k Escort. She's happy with it.

Parkers states 88BHP and 0-60 in 10.8 seconds. Top speed 112MPH.

Not a powerhouse but by no means a slouch

Cheers for that, Its definatly quick enough for her style of driving!

He made a point of saying it drank about half a litre of oil between services, the coolant was pint, and the engine clean, so im sure its had all the love in the world.

It picks up speed very rapidly for a 1.4 aswell, I looked at a few, and they were rough as anything, with very little SH so i just walked away.

whoever at ford decied to make stereo's with fake wood facia's needs shooting. Otherwise looks alright

edit, and wtf traction control

She's got the ford 6006E multichanger, we're just tihnking whether to put it in or not as its black. All the Ghia's came with woodern fasica.
