Hi everyone . I am a newbie and looking to buy new/nearly S.
Have done some research/lurking here it seems Bob Gerard looks good, and the service sounds exemplary.
I will be interested in part exchanging my 16 month old focus ST

My questions are aimed at those of you on here who have used BG.
1) Would they take a car like mine part ex?
2) Would they offer a fair price?

Thanks for your help.
By the way. Excellent forum- The enthusiasm for the S really shines through,and lurking on here has convinced me to take the plunge

Cheers

I doubt they will give a good part ex. The premise of their pricing is to keep the cost low.
