Michael P Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 hello hello and welcome :) from seeing other peoples really short waiting times for their MK7's (i jest) "hand crafted" seems to be their get-out-of-jail-free card for "we like building cars quite slowly and making people wait" anywho, your car sounds very nice. loads better than mine, but mine is lovely all the same :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another one waiting here - it sucks, but will be worth it in the end. If we didn't wait we'd end up in Mazda 2s - oh no! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a little concerned about how nippy the 1.6 diesel will be, I couldn't find one to test drive, could anyone comment on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanGull Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 I liked the diesel and do enough miles to justify having one - but I particularly loved the petrol engine. If I'd had the diesel, I don't think I would have been upset (and I know my wallet wouldn't ) and it certainly felt nippy - even grunty.

Looking at the stats i should only be 2 seconds behind you (0-62 mph), in car terms that is an eternity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah - I'll be two seconds behind those with Mountune kit. I can live with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sussex Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Sounds a lovely car Chris. I've got a 1.4 Zetec 3 door in Ocean and I have bought and fitted a set of the titanium X alloys to it. You'll love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKChris Posted July 29, 2009 Author Share Posted July 29, 2009 Or not if Michelle's is anything to go by! Now that's just nasty ;) I hope Michelle gets it sorted soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulworthing Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Now that's just nasty ;) I hope Michelle gets it sorted soon I genuinely feel sorry for her - the potential of that car is great and yet she has been let down over and over again. I worry that the Moutine bit is putting her off the Fiesta in general and ruining her experience of a really great little hatchback Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
