    You'll get one from any ford main dealer for €20 or so.

    I have a brand new one (genuine Ford part - still in plastic packaging) that I'd be willing to sell cheap, 'tis the same as this one:

    Set of 4 icky hubcaps were 17.95 last time I saw them in Aldi.

    New Ford trims are cheap ... just buy a new one. For example, set of 4 genuine wheel trims for 03 Focus cost me 37 euro the other day. Compare that to a hubcap for a 03 Almera which are 50 euro each !

    My pet hate is non-genuine wheeltrims on a car !

    Sure just take off the other 3 and it'll be grand. Or leave it the way it is and people will think it's a Garda car.:D

    FYI, if you move to a 'smart' meter electricity plan, you CAN'T move back to a non-smart plan.

    You don't have to take a 'smart' meter if you don't want one, opt-out is available.

    Buy drinks in 3L or bigger plastic bottles or glass bottles to avoid the DRS fee.

    **** me thats expensive, maybe I should just sell the 3 I have left rather than looking for a new one.
