ive been to look at other cars that are relatively cheap, and ive found a 53 plate Fiesta black, full leather the lot for 3800...

seems a really nice car.

considering im going from a clio this is a godsend to get a decent car =)

    its not hard =)

    ive had the clio for 2 and a half years. had the warrenty for 2 years and nothing went wrong with it. once the 2 years ran up, ive spent £3500 fixing the damn thing and ive had enough now. want something a bit more reliable and practical.

    Which clio?

    I believe the fiesta blacks are a good car, i have not long had my 52 plate fiesta 1.4 and it has been better than expected. To be honest i wasnt expecting alot as my previous car was a lexus IS200 and an absolutely fantastic car!!

    Best bet is to take one for a test drive and see if you feel comfortable in it. Also what are you looking for in the car as this could affect your decision.
