Picking it up on Sunday, looking forward to it!

It's a 1.8 Focus Zetec with the climate pack, reflex pack, and a CD player!

Seems to be mint, 90k on the clock and the serpentine belt squeals slightly but other than that it seems good!

Found every receipt for the car since new folded and hidden down the back of the owners pack! Bonus!

Aye, they're huge! (And one's rusty!)

It was well worth holding out for the options, its rare to have them all together!

Aye, my girlfriend has been driving it for a bit as she's insured and I'm not (Need to get that sorted at lunch today) and it doesn't half go when you boot it :O (And I've had bikes before this!)

My first car was one of those too, was a few years ago now though and I couldn't find a 3 door so ended up with a 5. Had it for nearly 3 years and it was great. Good choice, but please, please, please dont't chav it up.
God no, I'm going to fully service it, and then maybe uprate the brakes, but that's it...

Not into my chavving, by god it's properly fun to drive though, didn't think anything would put a smile on my face car wise after having a bike!

Needs some new tyres though, can anyone recommend some?
