    Would anybody consider 116k miles high for a 1999 1.6 Focus ? Don't know about the service history though.

    I know some engines can tolerate a lot of miles but I don't really know how the 1.6 Focus is like. Finding something decent for around 1500 with under 130k miles isn't easy. Estates Focus though are going a lot cheaper for some reason (sub 1200).

    Yup, it is indeed! It's often been said that the divil sends out his demons to attack Alfas so you're not too far off ;)

    I went to pay for Diesel earlier and my card bounced.

    I had to ask for my payslip to be posted out as I was nowhere near the office and still no sign of it.

    I'm growing very tired of this.

    In fairness, the owner was quite understanding. :)
