tetra Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 i picked my car up on friday and i havent stopped driving since. These things are soo smooth! and a bit too quiet! I may have stalled it a few times already... i will take it on a photoshoot as soon as i find somewhere nice enough to park it. im assuming im the only one with cedar green?

TJ-MK.J Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 the mileage on mine soon clocked up when i first got it aswell :) new things are always great :)although you must be trying really hard to stall it :P my wife stalls ours alot especialy in reverse, she says the engine is so quiet she cant hear how many revs shes got, on the other hand i have no trouble. We still cant get over how quiet they are! We used to have a Mini cooper compared to the fiesta that thing was so loud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amyjaj Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 They indeed. I have to turn the radio completely off to hear it. With it being an automatic though when you have the window open you can hear it really rev up before it changes gear which is loud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it stay on the same gear longer if you have the pedal all the way down? tetra, I can't wait for the pics. I don't think I have ever seen real pics of a cedar green Fiesta. Excited here, so don't keep us waiting much longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to have a Mini cooper compared to the fiesta that thing was so loud i'm not sure how not being able to hear the engine and stalling are linked, surely you can feel what the car is doing through the clutch pedal. maybe its just me :) although i did think that the new fiesta had some sort of anti stall where revs were increased when it thought you were about to pull off etc. and yes pics of car please or it hasn't happened :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I turn the stereo down a bit when I get to a junction or roundabout, I listen to the revs not just feel with the pedals if ya understand me?

Mostapha Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 Come on young man!!! I'm looking forward to actually seeing a cedar Fez. I've seen all of the colours now with the exception of this one. I haven't seen 'real' pics of Cedar Green, Blazer Blue, and Ocean Blue. I see you have Ocean Blue. Do you have pics in good lighting? Anyone got pics of those colors? Especially Blazer Blue. And is it true that Ford is discontinuing that specific color? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pic was taken in bright sunlight...maybe it's my appalling photographic technique!! LOL Here's the back of Pedro...it may give you a better idea of the colour. I hear that Ford are discontinuing Cedar, but I know nowt about Blazer Blue going too. Dan????[IMG] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And is it true that Ford is discontinuing that specific color? blazer blue looks pretty crappy, too dark and it just doesnt fit the fiesta here's a pic of mine in oceanblue btw this pic is from the gallery of this forum there are lots of pics there, so have a look at it...
