WelshAde Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 well ive finally decided that it will be a fiesta for me, i had been thinking about the audi S3 but it just is too expensive to run, also the black zetec S that i saw this week looked realy stealthy and cool and is affordable, a few questions i have to confirm. What does the petrol zetec S sound like, does it have a nice engine tone inside and out? What is the average price i should expect to pay for one with a few extras added, 17" wheels, side skirts and the privacy glass being the main options i can think of adding at the moment. also is it true that tax on the zetec S petrol is £35 a year Ade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIIIDAA Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 What does the petrol zetec S sound like, does it have a nice engine tone inside and out? Sounds alright but look up Fiesta mountune What is the average price i should expect to pay for one with a few extras added, 17" wheels, side skirts and the privacy glass being the main options i can think of adding at the moment. Look up on ford's site and then come back on here and use the forum search to look up: deal drivers also is it true that tax on the zetec S petrol is £35 a year No Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 It says somewhere on the ford website about a £2,000 discount. Got mine from a ford dealer. I first looked on autotrader and found a few dealers. Went to their website, clicked a few boxes to get a price with extras then quoted the price to my locol ford dealer.
