I bought a 2009 Focus with over 80k on the clock almost 4 years ago. I've done another 80k and spent nothing over and above regular maintenance and tyres. Off hand, I'd guess 2k max?

I would not have expected to be so fortunate with a Ford but with a Honda I would be, not least because Hondas in the UK are synonymous with senior, careful drivers who look after their cars. As a consequence, it's a much sought after brand in the pre-owned market.
