2002 Ford Focus 1.6 3DR

DaDon

I know a guy, he's in Australia and his car is still parked up at his house. He wants to sell it because he needs the money, I'm thinking of offering him €3000, what do ye think? It's parked up for the last year and hasn't been started, should I get it for less because of this?
What's it worth? It's in good condition, well kept when it was going, he says theres low mileage on it.

Thanks!

Car is nearly 9 years old, I'd be offering a bit less than €3k for it.

Also how long has the car been parked up? Fluids most likely need to be changed, battery and possibly tyres too.

Parked up for just over a year, was looking up similar cars on Internet and there around that, this one has a good few extras (sun roof, alloys etc)
What would ye say it'd be worth if it was not the road?
Will offer him good bit less than that

I would not pay anymore than €2,500 for it but aim for as close to €2k as possible. That is assuming the car is in good working order.

If there was an nct it might be worth the 3k. There will be a few maintenance costs like timing belt & water pump etc. I think that 2.5k is a fair price.
