Okay, so after I got rid of the Corsa, was looking at a 5 door diesel car that was comfortable to drive and had a fair bit of grunt..
After looking at various different cars, makes and models, I eventually came across a silver Zetec TDCi Fiesta, as my brother has the Zetec S ECOBoost and a couple of my mates having the ST-2's and ST-3's, I decided to go with it... and I must admit I have fallen in love with it! It is completely standard for now, as just picked it up this morning, and haven't had a chance to take any pictures! Driven a 100 miles today as it is!
'S' Gel Overlay Badge for Steering Wheel insert - Ordered 12/03/15

New alloys and fresh Goodyear tyres
Tinted windows
Tinted lights
4500k HID lights
Zetec S Upper rear valance
Zetec S Lower rear valance
Zetec S Front bumper pre-facelift
Red braided brake hoses
Yeah, engines are nearly bulletproof! Haha! Has done 71 thousand miles, but that's nothing really! Really pleased with it! Got a couple light upgrades coming, footwell lights and number plate and side lights
Right! So far I have bought a set of new wiper blades for the front as they where knackered and streaking on the windscreen, so they where replaced
Have ordered some CANBUS LED sidelights and red LED 501's for the footwell lights! Looking for some more ideas! No wanting to go too mental at the moment, more subtle stuff, like gel overlays and possibly some HID's etc
Haven't had a chance to give it the once over at work yet. Hoping to get it on the 4 poster and have a good look round it! Make sure everything is tip-top for only a 68bhp model, the torque is ridiculous, it certainly shifts! Seems quicker than the Corsa!
Because to be honest... The Corsa was bloody horrible! I think the Fiesta's are better build quality, and the gearbox is so much smoother! Looks isn't everything... However, 5 door models can be made to look quite smart
Hmm, I learnt to drive in a Corsa diesel, hadn't the poxy thing! Gearbox was bloody terrible and vowed I'd never get a diesel Corsa! Haha! Then my brother got the Zetec S ECOboost, and that looks absolutely stunning!! It was 3 doors though, and for a change wanted the practicality of having 5 doors (as all my previous cars bar my Land Rover where all 3 doors!) so wanted a bit of a change, but wanted to keep the small car theme, so decided on the Fiesta I don't think the 5 door Fiesta looks that bad to be honest
Well, seen as this thread had died a little bit... Thought I'd bring it back to life! Finally managed to get rid of using my mum and dads car for 6 months after my accident, and finally got a new car!
Fiesta 1.6 Zetec S TDCi
Pictures are to follow once I get it cleaned properly!! Happy New Year by the way
