[sas200]

opinions please on a ford focus, 1 year old low milage, �3200, is this a good buy.

sounds very cheap. normally a sound car, but you always get what you pay for. try parkers guide online for a guide price, as you dont say what model or spec it is.

Sure it's not a misprint?  Is it a very high spec model and the '1' off the front has dropped off? :)

Hell of a bargain!

Are you sure its genuine mileage?  I would expect no more than a 50% loss in value in the first year but even on the most basic model that is hell of a loss!

Are you sure it hasnt been clocked or been involved in an accident etc.  I would certainly proceed with caution and pay the �25 to have a HPI check done (check for outstanding finance on the car).  In fact there would be no harm in paying for a good mechanic to give it a thorough checking over.

Sorry - computer did that stupid thing again where every time I hit the space bar, it submits my answer!!! 

Ok - what I mean is that you should ask lots and lots of questions.  If you don't think you'll understand the answers (I'm not being rude... I wouldn't even know what to ask!) find a person who does (mechanic etc) as the other users have suggested. 

My point is really - don't trust them to be honest.  Get as much info as you can, and compare with similar models on www.autotrader.co.uk or other similar websites.
