Hi Everyone,

Its very nice to meet you all.

I am currently looking at swapping my 2008 Honda civic Type R for a 2010 Ford Fiesta Zetec-S

I have previously owned a Fiesta ST but I moved up to the honda and now my world has changed I need something much cheaper to run and the Fiesta Zetec S is going to save me around £1000 a year in costs, but still look great!

Few quick ones though

the car I have been looking at is this one.

now I know the milage is a little high for an 18month old car but I don't drive that much so It should fall back into line within a year. by march it wil be 25000 miles so 12500 a year then by next year 30000miles so only 10000miles a year as I only do roughly 5000 miles a year if I am lucky.

I have a few questions:

Is there anything I should be looking for?

what is the service schedule? so how many stamps should it have by now and at what milages... 20,000 miles or 2 years? or 12500 miles and yearly?

does it have a cam belt or chain if so what is the interval or years?

what size are the tyres? 205/40 R17?

anything else thats useful to know

Thank you for your time in replying everyone

all the best

Glen
