A New Fiesta Owner From France

Just to introduce myself, I am an Australian living in France, being a Ford fanatic ever since I can remember, in fact used to work for them.

Sold my 2000 Focus, (possibly the best handling car and most reliable car I have ever owned ) now it's the little brother; have some reservations about it which I will endeavour to discuss and share opinions with you people later.

Thanks

Anthony

    Hello Anthony!

    I'm new to the forum, too. Our situation is similar to yours. My husband traded his 2002 Focus Zetec for a new Fiesta Titanium. My trade was a little more severe...I traded a 2003 Audi S3 for a new Fiesta Titanium. It was a tough decision, as I've been an Audi girl over the last 14 years!

    It's just the two of us -- no kids. And I've recently retired. So we thought it was time for cutting our automobile running costs, especially as petrol is so expensive in the UK (and my Audi needed high-octane unleaded too!).

    So I'll be happy to compare notes with you.
