Very nice Desmond, but I can't let you go and show off your next motor without hinting at mine....

I dont like it I bought it as I'd blown my other Fiesta up. I bought that as it has PAS, C/L, Sunroof, 1600 engine and other tricks for ?1500 with low miles on it and I needed something as a first car. I wouldn't drive a fiesta if I wasn't a skint arsed student

Hints of my next car? Pfff, it'll be stupid quick put it that way.

I bought it based on four main things:

1. Had a great interior (gotta love those jigsaw raven padded seats)
2. Had a great bodykit (looks a lot more modern than the blocky old XR/RS kit)
3. Was group 8 insurance, unlike the XR/RS's which are group 12 or 14 I think
4. You get all the electric goodies, power steering, sunroof etc for just over a grand. Not bad!

I think the car still looks great for it's age, almost like a modern car. The performance isn't amazing but handling is good, I'm getting a bit too old for its student/boy racer image so will probably sell it within a year and buy something big and Japanese.

Tbh its a first car.. I couldn't commit to spending big money on it like a lot of people do.

When this one goes pop I'll get a ZS keep that until I can insure something with a turbo.. T4 turbo.

i dont like the look of most cars under the ?3k mark. and the fiesta standard isn't my cup of tea, unless its a turbo or 2i. i like the si apart from the front bumper. but anyway..

i like the fiesta because it is the only real car i like the interior of strangely enough. it has that nostalgic and good feel to it. (call me mad, bovered)

as for the outside with a few mods to make the bodywork slightly more smooth then i love it.

as for the engine, its cheap to fix, ford are very popular and it's relaible if a little old and you need to remember to look after it and not expect it to be like a brand new car.
