2013 Fiesta Arriving 1St March!

Featured Replies

count down thread, who else is waiting for their fiesta?

I got the 1.0L (123) Titanium in White. The only other extra was Diamondbrite spray, does it actually work(?), they offered it to me for free so I felt obliged to accept.

Friday's the day!

I've never had a new car either. My only previous car was an imported mx5 made in 1997. The speed and acceleration are about the same between the two cars except I get to save £700 on my insurance! Plus when I'm speeding down the motorway I won't be deafened or leaked on!

well thats always a bonus haha welcome to the forum by the way

Plus when I'm traveling at a safe speed under the limit down the motorway I won't be deafened or leaked on!

I'm waiting on my 125ps zetec-s in red and again my first brand new car. Getting all the extras on it seeing as i've got ford discount. Not too over excite anyone but onlyy 5 days left :D

PICTURES!!!!!! :lol:

Yes lets have some pics.

My brother in law had his tdci zetec s 5 month old ,written off by a Romanian trucker on the wrong side of the road.

It is being replaced by the 3 door Titanium 1 litre 123 hp, not sure of colour delivery has been put back 3 weeks due to engine demand but will post as soon as he gets it, (they live next door in a house I built).

Cheers

These Romanian truck drivers are terrible, one cut across a 4 lane roundabout in front of me and 3 other cars, not even realising what he'd done :huh:

Well let's face it when they can't tell the difference between a cow and a horse, what have they got going for them really?

To be fair, how many people did notice it was horse!

It's what you get when you eat processed food I guess :P

I'm waiting for a silver Titanium X 125, should have been on the road March 1st, but delivery has been put back to 9th March. :angry:

Ah unlucky :/ race to post the first 13 plate fiesta ;)

I'm waiting for my candy blue titanium x 125 with 17's. They told me it was in stock when I ordered it, then last week told me it was being built on the 7th feb. will be very very annoyed if it ain't there on Friday. Anyone know how long it should take to get to the dealers. Again it's my first ever new car and I wanted it on release day, just one of the things on my To Do list.

mine was built the 6th of Feb and is being delievered to the dealer this week. so i would guess its around a 3 week process then its just how busy the dealer is with preping it getting tax plates etc etc i have found its normally a month from built date to keys in my hand with the last few cars

Thanks, will be ringing them tomorrow, really hope it's Friday as I booked the day off work.

Takes around 1-2 weeks to get from the factory to dealer, then a couple of days to PDI (which takes no time at all in reality) and tax the car...

Which dealer did you get your fiesta from carlbob?

Allen ford at riverside. Not greatly impressed with them so far.

That's where I got mine from, who's the salesman you're dealing with?

What dealer did you order from ritch?

Rang Allen Ford earlier to enquire about my car as i have heard nothing. Got told that they dont have any details of my order!!!

They are gonna get back to me tomorrow. P**sed off is a mild understatement.

Vospers in Plymouth, I've been dealing with a sales person call Nikki who has been brilliant, she's kept me informed all the way, although I'm a low maintenance customer!

We weren't either. It was like getting blood out of a stone to find out what we were actually going to have to pay for the car. The trade in price they offered was £1k less than we got from another Ford garage. Everytime we negotiated on price the chap would run off to his manager and come back with pretty much the same asking price just made to look different with creative accounting. In the end we went to another Ford franchise and got what we wanted.
