I was just wondering if i have the oldest MK7 on these forums. My cars registration date is 19th December 2008. Can anyone beat that?

Still looks good as new in my biased opinion. :D

Looks like a 11' plate mate!

I'd be able to beat that if i still had my old MK7 Fiesta :lol:. 11th December 2008, Wonder where it is now... :unsure:

I think Michelle from Essex was earlier than that - but we haven't seen her for years so she's disqualified.

Off topic but 11th December is my birthday :P

Nice car Solaris, but mine is slightly older!

1st November 2008 Cologne build, registered on 21st November 2008. Just reached 30,000 miles with its 3rd service due next week.

You're right, still looks good as new.

Yep it's Sea Grey. The overcast sky doesn't really bring out the colour that well.

So, what do you feel for the car after 2,5 years of owning it? ;)

I've only had it 1.5 years, I'm second owner, if i bought a new one at this spec at that time it would cost me £19k :blink: . Whoever bought it originally went a bit over the top with the optional extras. Which i like. :D

After 1.5 years I'm still loving it, but am thinking about an mp140 upgrade.

Thanks, I made the grille myself using carbon fibre inserts cut to shape.

There is/was a 56 plate one at Chambers Ford in Sutton ;)

Test vehicle granted (Hot Magenta and Street pack wheels) but still :P

Outside glance it looked the same. Identical to the one on the Ford adverts from 08 in the Hot magenta with street pack. Didnt't look inside wasn't interested enough lol.
