I've got a Focus now mate, and I love it. I would of just gone for the Focus on 18's and maybe a better model, but I think Ford have ruined the looks of it a little.

I've been in touch with them and pleaded my case. Back in the day it worked on points, now it works on cases individually, So I might be okay.

Volvo no question. We've got a fleet of Vauxhalls at work and without exception they are dire and seem to spend as much time with Vauxhall as they do with us.
