PeeWee Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 yeah mate.. and the 1.4 tdci...Well the 1.25 zetec is pricey anyway so not a great choice.Anyway I just sourced several at around £1700 for her based on rough knowledge (used 1991 as year of birth) and that was fully comp on a 1.25 3 door Fiesta zetec 16v.Not sure where you got up to 8k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeeWee Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 the £1500 i got was better My quotes were for the car she wanted though not the roller skate. I feel quite bad with mine being £280 on the same car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidrick Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Good price IMO. Ex-learner cars are always regularly services If it was my missus, I'd want to keep the dual pedals since I try and use them most times I'm in the car with her!!

Stu Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 It's a cheap car. If you get a year's motoring out of it then it's cheap motoring. Two years would be fantastic. £50/month for a car? Bargain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
