Got something to say, but it's not classic related? Here's the place to discuss. Also includes the once ever-so-popular word association thread... (although we've had to start from scratch with it - sorry!)
Congratulations!
You are one mouth further away from getting your MX5 though

on the subject of cars all the girls have said they want an mx5 the baby wants a blue one.....wifey wants an audi r8, meanwhile back to practical my brother is selling his 02 focus diesel.. about 90 k on the clock although the counter has packed up.. apart from that it seems in good nick...whats it worth?? its a second car as my truck has only 3 seats & when the galaxy was sick last week it made life very difficult... it wasnt too bad with my old van, wifey could sit in the back on a toolbox for the odd trip out but evryone in the front of my truck is dangerous...
I have a 2000 focus diesel which has just rolled over 140,000 miles and an 05 on 150,000. 90k is bugger all.
The TDDI in the mk1 focus is a bit agricultural but it is bomb proof.
Depending on overall condition it is worth somewhere between £500 and £1200. Once you start getting towards £2k you can get a MK2.
