    No other 2001 plate 2nd hand can be bought for as low as you can get a Mondeo. Fantastic value.

    £30 fills the 2ltr tank and lasts 250 miles of mixed driving.

    145bhp at 4,500 revs. Good acceleration when you need it

    I personally think that the MK3 is one of the best styled cars on the road.

    Comfort

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Not as comfortable as the MK2 Ghia I owned previously.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Central locking and factory fitted immobiliser.

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0

    My experiences with Brunel Ford's servicing has been terrible in the past. They charge excessively for labour, and quote you for parts that don't need changing.

    Seals on doors let in air, so traveling over 60mph causes cabin noise.
