With everything that's going on in the news with Diesel this 1.0 Petrol seems like a great option
This is based on 8,000 miles a year and over 2 years
There is a £298 admin fee but even with that this I a lot of car for the money
They also have £1201.50 deposit and £133.50 a month on their site as well as 10,000 miles and also the diesel one although that does cost a bit more £216.74 a month
I don't think I have missed anything but this is my first post so sorry if I have

You do a search for any engine 'going pop' and you'll find plenty of results, especially one that's sold in the millions...
Irony is that many people will use VW as an example to counter the Ford engine, yet they have had plenty of engine issues of their own, and I don't just mean the emissions...

Unless ford pushed their employees to vote no to brexit I'd say half of them chose their own job uncertainty

:smiley: indeed, surely you need 200bhp to go up a hill!
Are you towing an HGV?

Great deal (quite tempted with this myself) probably trying to sell as many as they can before the tax rise
Also it doesn't include metallic paint either (not a worry personally but some people might like it)

You missed the one off processing fee £298.80
Nice cars - had a few in this spec on hire and liked them

Good deal until as plane_boy says the processing fee kicks in.

I didn't miss it off I said in the description, but most places take a processing/admin fee and even with that it's under £5k

Great price but don't expect anywhere near the claimed mpg - you'd be likely to get 42ish.

And can you tell us ANY car which achieves 'claimed' mpg in real world use? Do people really still not understand that this is a comparison figure achieved under lab conditions and will not be achievable on the road? I guess you believe ARGOS RRPs too? :wink:

Has anyone here used Fleet Prices before? Any good? Can't seem to find any reviews online.

I drove an ST-Line version with the same engine and was pleasantly surprised. It's true that the MPG figures are optimistic, but it's not all that thirsty. In the end I went with a Leon with the 1.4 (150) engine as it was only slightly more expensive, but the Focus did leave me with a good impression...

Hi is your Leon got the cylinder shut off what mpg do you get ? My 1.4 Tsi golf dog average is 46 mpg

I recommend the 125ps variant over the 100ps, if for nothing more than the 6th gear it brings. Very capable car either way for the average driver... And even has enough when the urge takes you to get the heart racing.

Good if you live in a flat area, not really got the power to go up hills.

These are nice inside but only downside is the EcoBANG engine. Its hardly eco, needs worked hard and a number of them have gone pop.
