Time for a new......................Mondeo!!!

[acevuk]

Am after a replacement for my ageing, failing Renault Scenic, and have been seriously considering Mondeos Have had one before (1.8 LX TD), but was looking for something better and newer.

Seen a couple that I like the look of - what do you guys think a good price would be for a model of the following spec:

2.0 (any more gets expensive on tax)
The more trim/toys the better (like the look of the Ghia X)
Petrol (can't justify diesel)
Hatchback
Max price £7000
preferably 2004 or newer (post-facelift)

any other car suggestions considered with the same spec.

Thanks.

For a 2004ish mondeo there is no need to spend anywhere near £7000.

That is the max spend - I don't necessarily want to spend that! I've seen a couple of 55 reg Ghia X's for under that, so was using it as a comparison.

There's a local garage here with an 06 registered Titanium X 2.2 TDCI estate for £7495, so thats the sort of thing you could probably be looking at

That is the sort of thing I'm looking at, though I don't want an estate or diesel! I'm only just starting to look, so there should be a few coming on the market in the next couple of months - I'll wait and see!

Thanks.
