Shut up before anyone says about me and Zetec S's, it was a petrol one 
Anyway, I saw a new one today on the business park where I work. And oh my it was such a nice looking car. Dare I say it nicer than a Corsa VXR which I'm a huge fan of.
We can't get away from small hot hatches being bigger now, but this looked fantastic. Big Focus ST esque wheels, and different bumpers etc to standard (which I happen to see in the car park at Uni).
I was massively impressed - it just looked like a good car.
Can't seem to find any definite pictures on the internet though.

Missus likes the new fiesta, in that jazzy purple/pink colour they show in the adverts 
Got to admit they are very big inside though, couldn't believe the size difference i felt between my Corsa B and a VXR/New Fiesta

Wheels are to small. Interiors are cheap and they are always far to expensive for what they are.

pics for you to wank over 
i also think it looks lovely even if it does have it's critics.
you soon come round to them when you see them all the time in work 
the wheels are the 17'' optional extras which are a must along with the optional sideskirts.

it is a good looking car but i always find ford interiors are cheaply made especially things like the quality of the carpet.

carpet ford is a budget brand. and if you don't like the carpet put mats down 
my car's had to go back a few times to fix 7 things so far, compared to 0 for my fiesta.
you get good and bad with everything.

I don't mind my interior. Obviously it's very plasticy but I don't find it ghastly!
Looks sexual that in white, not liked it before but I like it in white.

Thats a shame, pay all that money for a nice car and things wrong kinda puts a downer on it but hey what else can go wrong 
Ka's are the worst, Focus's arent too bad but in general fords aren't too good, Volvo's now they have some sexual carpets! 
That white is very nice, headlights are huge but i like the lines.

That looks ace in white, that's close to a Corsa VXR or SRi if not better looking IMO, but they don't look to good without the side skirts and larger wheels

I quite like that, not a great fan of the white though, would prefer it in the blue they do, i'd prob still buy one though.
