New Focus or 2017 CLA?
Im currently driving a ford fiesta 1.25 Titannium - 15k Kilometres and looking to upgrade - Options are new Focus or 2017 CLA both are at comparable prices.. Ford Garage offering 15 as trade in Mercedes offering 11k, taking into account depreciation value of Focus in 2 years, Im stuck whether to go with the Focus at higher trade in or CLA... Appreciate your thoughts..
Our answer:
Hi Mark,
Well, the trade-in you’re being offered from Ford is exceedingly generous, as that’s about top market value for a 1.25 Fiesta Titanium with low mileage on it. Mercedes is being more reasonable on the trade-in, looking to turn a profit, but that won’t help you. Luckily, as we prefer the Focus to the CLA anyway, we’d recommend you go for the Ford deal and chop your Fiesta in there.
