:P bring it on.

Paul I've never seen you like this - car withdrawal combined with frustration and a hint of jealousy. :lol:

Well I have been carless since the 1 June . . . .

I don't. For me - no car looks its best in bright green.

Evidence of this? The absence of bright green from the paint cards of BMW, Audi, Mercedes, Ferrari, Aston Martin, Zonda, Bentley, Rolls Royce, Bugatti etc etc etc

Hmm...

* Scratches head and tries to recall if he remembers seeing anything other than a hot magenta or squeeze version in any of the Ford TV ads...

;)

blue is not a good tv colour otherwise im sure it would of been the first choice :lol:

The reason white is not on the ad is very simple...

Ford marketing people - "crap, we can't build these fast enough, we can't show them the best colour or everyone'll want one NOW"

Wait a few months for demand to slip - then a new ad will appear with a white car to boost sales again. ;)

I've seen some photos of the new Fiesta where the proportions look all wrong, but in your 3/4 views it looks brilliant. I keep opening this thread back up to take another look at the first two photos and imagining what my car will look like....wrong colour and spec but still....

I'm a bit jealous of the white now looking! I've ordered ocean blue... maybe when I see it I won't feel so bad :)

Maybe when we really get back into the 80's revival they will put the white colour coded car into the adverts! :P

OH the heady days of the Escort RS! :lol:

With dress-up or not?

I think an Ocean blue, dressed up Titanium with the 7-spoke 16" alloys would have been my second choice to the Zetec S I've ordered.

Would love to see one of each colour Dressed UP Titanium X parked next to each other . . .

I think an Ocean blue, dressed up Titanium with the 7-spoke 16" alloys would have been my second choice to the Zetec S I've ordered.

It has dress up, no 7 spoke alloys though. I wanted the £100 extra alloys, they told me they were being discontinued, I realised after looking around it's the 5 spokes I really wanted as shown above :( Nevermind.

Will post some pictures in hopefuly the not to distant future!

the 16" alloys being discontinued hey? looks like ill be in the old exclusive club then ;)

Only an hour or so to go for you Dan - excited for you fella even if I am also a bit !Removed! that mine has not arrived yet!

More pics, vids etc. please!

The Ocean Blue looks great in the flesh.

I'd never seen one until I actually got mine - I just picked the colour based on those odd little sample cards that they have at the dealers (which, incidentally, don't really look anything like they should).

I was torn between a Colorado Red ZS and what I ordered but I think the Squeeze is just bit more funky and whereas you will eventually see loads of lower models in that red, the green will become more and more rare due to its price

I've got Ocean....you will love it.

As for the wheels, I am biased but for me, it is all about the X pack 17's, they are just stunning.

What do you mean - 'lower models'! :P I prefer to see us more as 'modificationally challenged'!

:lol::lol: - and it gives you something to aspire too without leaving the Fiesta behind ;)

One day ... ONE DAY ... us mere Zetec owners, and our allies, (or is it alloys), from the lands of Studio, Style and Style+ will take over the world with our vastly superior numbers! (evil laugh!), lead on our mission by the small, but bright and shiny, Colorado red brigade. :P

I keep going to turn the key! Duh.
