Budget would depend on if they would accept trade in.

The white one is nice and its about the closest one to me for sale. Guess they did not sell many of these cars?

Really liked mine. Good amount of power and mpg wasn't terrible. Engine note was great though some people prefer the note from the Focus ST which, with the same engine, had a slightly louder, more obvious note.

Not the last word in dynamics or handling but good nonetheless.

Interior equipment was excellent (I had the R-Design spec) and it all had a premium feel about it.

However, do not underestimate how much of a pain the hatch shape is! It can be a total pain to get certain items into the boot due to it's wierd shape!

I would change the exhaust and air intake to get that 5 cylinder singing. The Monaro has a custom made exhaust on it
