Cheers I dread to think what the paintworks going to be like on it..... My own fault really. Going to keep it in the best possible condition until I come to sell it! I reckon I'll get around £4.5 to £5k for it, 06 REG 1.4 zetec climate Fiesta, only done 22k miles. in generally good nick..... although I have hammered the poor thing.

Salad cream?! Just a poor mayonnaise substitute! You need Hellman's stains on your seats!

I used to use Fabreze on the carpets and upholstery in the other fiesta, that used to make it smell fresh.
