Focus ECOnetic. But diesels are not suitable for repeated short runs from cold starts, only for driving significant distances otherwise you will have a lot of expensive problems.
Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.
