Estate cars rule for me.. BTW Guy's. Why is it I cannot post any photos or a link on this forum?0

Because you're a new user.
More to the point why are you making posts that have nothing at all to do with the subject of the thread you posted on?0 -

Not the friendliest remark ; but, thank you for the information. When do new members have the sanction to post Photos and links??0 -

Been looking for a ford fiesta zetec s for a while now. After browsing a lot of tat I have found this local to me.
Ford Fiesta 1.6 Zetec S 2006 - 47k miles - £3,199
2 Previous owners
Private sale.
Looking up value on autotrader comes up as £2,450. But I'm not sure if this is an accurate value. Any opinions on if this is a good deal?
Way too much! Car is worth £1600 - ebay sold listings

That's not quite a comparable vehicle, though.
Zetec S vs. 'Style' isn't really the same thing.
Sure, to me, and possibly to you, they're all just basic, Eurobox shopping cars, but clearly to the OP the Zetec S is 'a bit special'.0 -
I guess it's no different to me wanting an S-line when I was shopping for an Audi A3 but when I finally got one I wasn't overly impressed with it. Suspension was far too hard for my liking, only kept it 18mths in the end but thankfully didn't lose any money on it.0

That's a Cat D car though, so again not really comparable. And it's yellow.0
