    100 / 6 = 16,667 miles per year

    Not too high really if it's been maintained, plenty of decent lower mileage ones out there though so unless it's cheaper than them why bother?

    yes thought that ...its not overly priced its just its the higher specked titanium model and it has everything

    Well if the price is right and so is everything else I wouldn't let 30k miles extra on the clock put me off it against a boggo more expensive model

    It was updated 3 days ago though so it's probably still around. May even get it cheaper if the seller is looking to shift it fast.

    Price seems pretty good for what you are getting with Leather, Sony head unit and auto headlights.

    I saw an 04 old shape poverty spec 1.4 focus for €3,700

    maybe this one would be a better option however it has nowhere near as much stuff as the other cars

    That's the Connection model, they were pretty well equipped, has a few things the Titanium would not have but missing a few Titanium things also.

    I think the best thing to do from here is have a look at both car...decisions decisions decisions:confused:

    Also to add, the 1.6 litre engine in the Ghia/Titanium models is different to the 1.6 litre engine found in the other models. The Ghia/Titanium 1.6 litre engine has 15bhp more, has variable valve timing and a bit better fuel economy.
