It's a 52 plate (from 2003). It needed some new suspension bits last year which cost a few bob. There's too many speed bumps around here!

Finger's crossed it wont need anything, but if it does, I want to make sure I can get the best price on the parts. I can only assume a Ford dealer would charge full list price for parts, but I have no idea whether any other garage would be able to discount them or not? It's not that easy to shop around for this sort of thing, unless you can do the work yourself!
