To be honest I was really impressed with the mondeo really nice to drive and handled extremely.well doesn't drive like a big car at all I got what I wanted for the t5 Andrew didn't really haggle but like I said they're a lot of car for the cash especially with the spec mine has but then 1400 is still a pretty big hit to take in 19 months, was very sad when I saw it drive away its very strange seeing someone else drive your pride and joy l.even more peeved as my new car won't be ready till next week despite being promised I could get it today so train down to Newcastle for.me and a week of metroing to New job till I can get back up to Glasgow next weekend :-(

If it was for my redundancy and resulting job change I would just be keeping the t5 till it died as they're worth pretty much half of nowt which is silly as they're amazing cars mine was defo in impreza territory after the remap just a bit peeved I spent a lot on the dmf and clutch and the brake upgrade and then had to sell but think the mondy should be fun after the remap :-)
