some lad on ukfn posted these pics up of his new fiesta, looks awesome i think. he had the original 17's powdercoated black which look 
got some cheap finance deals going on at the moment so think i'll chop the focus in to free up some cash (over 220 quid a month less on finance) and £400 cheaper insurance.
will be going for the 1.6 120bhp petrol model, but you can take them up to 140bhp with the mountune upgrade.
as much as i love the focus, i just don't use it enough to justify having it. it does a 15 mile round trip to work and back each day and a quick blast down some lanes at the weekend does 200 miles to 45/50 quid aswell which gets annoying after a while.

white 
just gotta see what options i want then spend ages fighting dealers to get the best price 
wasn't really keen on the new fiesta at first, but when you see them every day in work, they really grow on you.

200 miles to £45 Ben?
Assuming 95p per litre, that's about 19 mpg - is that normal for them?

yeah, i usually get 16mpg average, mostly stuck at traffic lights or doing silly speeds on NSL roads 
i'm getting 21-22mpg at the moment, but that's driving really slow and only half throttle max.

How much a month can you get them for? Or is there not much point asking cos you get a special rate through working for them?
