That's really nice mate. I've got the mk4 in sea grey which is a nice color but I'll prob be looking to get the 4.5 in Ink Blue next. One like yours with all the add ons hopefully. Let me know when your selling it and hope you enjoy the car. All the best. Dan
Sea Grey's a lovely colour. Very James Bond. And if I ever sell this one you're first on the list. :L Although I think you'll be waiting a while...! :}
Certainly is! Such a different type of dealership to the rest, I was quite impressed. No hassle at all. Was just like, "There's your car, there's your keys, bye!" :}
You'll be thinking of Archers of Ashby. Motors bought them out and holds the premises at Ashby. Bought my ST from Archers. They always seemed to get the best if the high end Ford direct stuff. My txs has been serviced by Motors since day one (about 12 times in 4 years!!!!!)

At first I thought it was a bit of a tatty place that had suffered through lack of financial investment, but after a closer look I'd say it was 'quaint' and certainly different (in a good way) to the big modern dealerships. Very traditional etc. I liked it!

Thats the car I was trying to convince my dad to buy on boxing day, I saw it online on xmas day, ive never seen one so well specced it has every extra fitted,well done mate
I love my TiT x sport had it a year now not as well specced as yours!
Haha, tell your Dad I'm VERY pleased he didn't!! Lol. I only found it by chance, also on Christmas Day ironically. Was looking for a Mokka for my Mum and it popped up. The second I saw it I knew I had to buy it (don't tell the Mrs..) and made me realise how much I missed my first one.
I've never seen one with every option either, especially in Ink Blue. So chuffed with it! Totally in love!!! :-D
Nice looking car captain. Not many tit x sports in blue. Is it petrol or diesel?
The TXS is highly spec'd as standard so I'm intrigued as to what extras yours has. Please enlighten.
- Rear privacy glass.
- Solar reflect windscreen.
- Sunroof.
- Rear sunblinds.
- Blind spot monitor.
- Lane departure warning.
- Auto high beam.
- Adaptive cruise control with forward alert.
- Hill launch assist.
- Electric seats.
- Driver's memory seat.
- Reverse dipping mirrors with memory.
- Tyre pressure monitor.
- Touchscreen navigation plus system with rear view camera.
- MultiMedia rear DVD system.
- Keyless entry.
I'm up for waiting. My wife won't let me have another car for ever anyway. I'll probs not be looking till mine has done a ton. I'm on 70,000 at the moment average 10,000 a year so maybe another 3 years time? What will ure mileage be by then approx do you recon? I much prefer the mk 4.5 model to the 5.
I have to say I do fancy the Mk5 hatchback in Deep Impact Blue with the 19s and full bodykit etc and the 210PS auto diesel. But the Mk4.5 is still a great looking car, especially in TXS trim. So rare!
As for mine it's on about 55K now (12 reg) but my commuting distance has just halved (literally yesterday - house move - chaos...) so hard to say really!
That's a great spec captain. You have adaptive cruise and rear blinds extra compared to my ecoboost tit x sport.
I had the diesel tit x sport for a year but did find its fuel economy poor. Never got regular 40's. Effing good cars tho and personally speaking nicer than the mk5.
Happy motoring pal.
