kahulakarma Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 I was really hoping to not have to get involved in this one - but can we agree to disagree on whether people are interested in the Metal and if you're not, go and find another thread to read. Have a nice day. At last common sense has broken out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikester Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 I assure you my paint has not faded one bit since 09, if your bro wanted red it looks like he should have bought a ford! I'll comment where I want, if it's a problem maybe leave it private? Welcome to teh interwebz :) kthxbye xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTard Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 i meant more along the lines of its a bit pointless. i could start a thread with "anyone seen a titanium with dress up kit on the road" or "anyone seen a s1600 134ps on the road"? i know you're excited but it seems more like you're ASW'ing. I'm excited about all kinds of stuff, i don't crave attention for it on a public forum however. Besides i got excited to see some mangled wreck of a car as a result of some metal on the road, how i was disappointed :( Just to point out, I have a titanium with the dress up kit =p I'm with ben and the others on this one, I wasnt to see some good pics of the fiesta metal on the road, and I think we should get excited that there will be more fiesta owners out there =] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne77 Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Well looks like some fun winding up on this thread ! ha!

Will put pics on when I have it on road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnie Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 (edited) I do find it quite funny that he has a RED (Worst colour) DIESEL (Worst Engine) Zetec S.... I think someone is a little bit jealous that the Metal doesn't come in red or a diesel!! haha Bet he does about 3k a year and thinks he is saving money with a diesel!!! Anyway rant over... ive ordered a Metal in Frozen white with privacy glass, power start, keyless, DAB should be pretty mint! Very interested in seeing some interior shots though still not alot of media cover on this. When i get mine i'll be sure to chuck some pics up.

Mike signed up just to post that eh. much happening in your life lol as per ben's post below, you couldn't be more wrong. the car was bought purposely becasue i entered into a job with a fair commute daily. so absolutely the best choice, plus the £20 road tax yearly and cheaper insurance over the petrol. why anyone would have such a puny petrol engine i'll never know. is that what its boiling down to, arguments over colour?! why would anyone want black everything on a car anyway, looks like you're on steelies in pics, from a distance and whilst on the move. no matter how much you big it up its just an end of line fiesta with black wheels, stereo and some leather (which is available on other models) that Ford label as 'limited' or 'special edition'... c'mon its nothing special at all. and jealous of a car, don't think so... my motor looks way better than a zetec s with black wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antman99 Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Not to start a war here but I'm with mike, I have a 1.6tdci titanium with dress up and 7 spoke, am I sad for buying a diesel no m sensible where don we all see fuel prices going, we all need to face it isn't going to go below a pound a litre again. Oh and I do over 12k miles a year so diesel saves me hundreds if not thousands. How about we keep things friendly after all we are here to be a friendly community who all love our cars.

1gris Posted September 26, 2011 Author Share Posted September 26, 2011 Hi All Amazed this one is still going on, even if running out of steam a little (IMO) The discussion has come about not over colour / diesel v petrol or anything else of the sort. If the thread is read from the start, everyone can form their own conclusion as to the issue. Fair to say, anything will go off track when someone interjects with a wayward comment. This was done intentionally to prevoke response, and this is what it appears to have done. Why don't we now start a survey, and let members vote as to who they think is right and who is wrong. No sitting on the fence, and taking this even further off track,a simple answer is all that is required. Thread starter is wrong or thread responder is wrong.After say 2 weeks, count the votes. I started the thread and will happily appologise if members vote myself as at fault. Sounds fair to me.. unless anyone disagrees ?? Thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanGull Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 This thread was done as far as I could see - it had dropped down the boards in the past week, and I was glad to see the back of it. A poll so that someone can supposedly feel 'I was right' is, as has been said, completely unnecessary. Discussion - and as a part of that disagreement - are what FOC is all about. If lines are crossed, action is taken - as has happened in this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead i got a 2004 1.4 flame.....not quite the same but least cash buy so no risk to mortage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
