2011fiesta Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 I saw a fiesta with a 61 plate yesterday at my ford dealer sitting where they park the new cars that are about to be picked up. I forgot it was the 1st today. I'd be sat waiting at the dealers gates if it was me collecting it. Also while there I looked at a 2012 zetec. Wasn't too impressed with the silver door handles. Felt like they'd just slapped on thick silver paint onto the existing plastic. Could of been a one off mind, don't know. And the mini zetec s alloys looked funny at 15(?)inches, nice though.

akakray Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Got mine today and love it! Mountune mats arrived today too.. Next thing on the list is a J1 induction kit if the missus will let me :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam C Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Mine is due at the dealers on 8th October, so I guess it will be a few days after that when it is delivered (technically its not mine as its a company car). I'm bored of waiting now, it seems to be taking forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it probs wud have been a 1 off as I couldn't imagine them making changes to the 2012 model and letting that pass through quality control and get signed off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FIESTA_MAD Posted September 8, 2011 Author Share Posted September 8, 2011 i get my zetec soon but the one thing i will have to get use to is sitting closer to the wheel but i might have had it set wrong but last time i drove a fiesta was a 60 reg and felt closer to the wheel . the corsa i was driving before was not as close feeling. is it just me being weird ?

I've never sat in the new shape corsa to compare with but personally I think you can sit way back in the fiesta if you want. The dash is quite deep for a small car. I'm over 6 foot and don't have the seat all the way back. You'll be fine don't worry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D4nz0 Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 I'm 6'2 and can't dont have the seat all the way back. I've been very impressed with the space in the Fez. Not as impressive when someone has to sit behind me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tato Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 I agree, the fiesta is a big car in the front, .....the back - not so much Honestly, I was even surprised with the space in the back, which in my opinion is not that bad for such a small car.

Y don't you sit in a showroom fiesta if you're worried? Paul :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
