Please help.......
A couple of nights ago i had my beloved TDCi focus stolen from my driveway with the keys they stole from inside my house......I doubt very much i will ever see it again as it was a limited edition........so much as it pains me i am starting to think of the reality of my next car. Im buggered if im gonna have a boring mundane car so equipped with the knowledge that i loved my 16v clio a few years back im seriously thinking down the 172/ possible 182 route, besides i have a set of rims ready to go on from said 16v.....
What i want to know is genuinely what does it cost to run these cars, i believe that they will be fragile but how so?? MPG based on not driving like an idiot all the time but not driving like a saint either, how much time do they spend in the garage being repaired and what are their weaknesses, what should i look for buying one??
Any help gratefully recieved, but i want the truth, please dont tell me its a great car when deep down you know its got problems i cant afford to buy another money pit (johnny clio cost a bit to keep on the road).......
Many thanks guys......
