Hey all

Was in the market for a new "runabout" car and happened to come across quite a nice little bargain which has grown on me quite a lot over the last week

T reg Focus Zetec 1.8, long mot and tax with 133k for nicely sum of £250

Completely bog standard at the moment apart from having just changed its head unit from the old radio/cassette to a slightly more modern radio/cd unit

Not really had chance to get out and take some pics due to the weather over the past few days.... been a bit wet.

Here's the pic from the original sale though:

    Was tracking it on ebay for a few days sitting at £150, then the seller dropped it's reserve to £250 so I jumped at it.

    Offered the reserve and he accepted. All because he already had a new car and needed this one gone

    Couple of small issues like rear wiper motor dead and needing a new lower front grille, but I'm in the middle of sourcing parts now

    Sent from my GT-I9505 using Ford OC mobile app
