that makes sense now!! Fords are really expensive for what they are or is it Citroen that are really cheap, you decide.

@John...dont drive a Focus you say? I am off to the NEC today to do a final inspection (my work is holding a massive event there) and guess what National Car Hire have left outside Reception....2 silver Focus zetecs. Cant wait but there is also a Vectra SRI so I might have to get the receptionist to swap some names over

Bet you still prefer the C4 when you get back - the SRI seats aren't great, nor is the engine.

I had one for 24 hours when my rear spring broke

Have fun, Stuey! I hope your back's OK when you get out.

And yes, you're right, the Focus is really expensive for what it is.

And to think I learnt to drive in Micra's. Went to one driving school in Lancaster and then another aorund Manchester. Both times they turned up in Micras. Was driving the newest one in Lancaster and the old one in Manchester...both were awful and not really meant for someone of my bulk to drive.

So I convinced the guy to start giving me lessons in my own Clio.

Said it before and will say it again...the only thing I miss from my Focus is the gear change and the heated windscreen. I dont miss the dodgy electrics...blah blah blah
