    ill keep it short,

    i have 8000 or so to spend,

    i would like a focus 06/07 1.6 diesel.

    would it be worth it to look up the north, im happy to spend that amount but if i could get a better car for my money all the better!!

    what kinda vrt would i expect?

    thanks all

    no harm in looking....

    check out a few of the car sale sites and use the VRT calculator at vrt.ie

    only then will u be able to tell if it worth it for you

    Personally, I would be wary of buying a diesel in the north. Washed diesel; damage to pump/injectors etc.... Probably a much larger selection in Britain anyway.

    I bought a car from these people about 2 years ago. They are in Manchester by the way. Great to deal with and they will meet you in the Airport.

    I got very cheap flights too, think it was €38 for two one way.
