    Hi all

    A friend of mine is going to view this Ford S-Max: Click for add.

    What are your opinions? Mine is that it is dog rough to start with. But other than that I dont know much about these cars. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. Sorry for the short-on-information post.

    No mileage listed on the ad, either it's being sold by a gob$hite or it's clocked, best avoided. I would guess he won't have the full V5, he will be selling it on behalf of Mr X who has left the country....

    Looks rough to be honest. It's cheap, but then there's vrt. It's missing trim, needs bodywork, could have astronomical mileage. I can't see that being the bargain it appears to be.

    From the pictures, it looks like it has had a hard life, the passenger side door pull is missing, these don't come off that easy. The centre rest is hidden in 1 photo and covered with a bag in another. To much information left out, steer clear.

    Awful ad. Petrol or diesel? Mileage?

    U.S.P. seems to be it's the cheapest 7 seater available. Trouble is the seller can't even spell that correctly.

    My money is on it being an ex UK mini cab. Probably picked up at an auction over there for half nothing thinking they can make a nice few quid from it over here, even at €4k it looks too rough imo. I'd rather go back a few years and pay €4k for a decent Galaxy if you need a 7 seater.
