Telling the future is generally difficult, but you WILL come on here ripping it the day after you buy it, so again, I would say no.

What is wrong with a Ford or Vauxhall? Whats the Saxo worth?

Lexus or brand new Saxo - what do you think?

I'm not endorsing any one car here, just trying to let you see what else is out there.

Yeah they're only group 13.

You can't deal though, they'll tell you to buy a cheaper car. Good news is they'll give you a good price for the Saxo.

What i've done in the past is said i want that car, have this much cash and this car. They then go away and chat to the boss and say no Then i'll offer to pay there and then so they go back to the boss and either say yeas or no. With the Focus this didn't work but once i walked away and got into the other Saxo i had, the salesman come running after me and we did the deal
