It's been great, I love this car to bits, better in every way than I could ever have expected.

She's going to be replaced with a Magnetic Grey 1.0 140 Zetec S.

I'll be well placed to see how different they are, so I'll let you all know my opinions after April 2nd....

Why the change?

Noooo dont do it lol only joking

Well my PCP expires in September and I got a really good offer in the colour I fancy.

It's my 3rd Ecoboost so it says a lot for them... I'm not easily pleased haha!

I used to have a PCP worst thing I did looking at my mileage all the time to make sure I'm not over. Finally moved off it last year with my ztec s. 

PCP doesn't work for everyone, it's wise to thoroughly investigate your individual use and expected use over the PCP period or you can get stressed.

Works perfectly for me, new car every 2 year, I know exactly what my motoring costs will be annually and no nasty surprises.

Plus my son in law works a "family discount" in for me, entirely legitimately....

Nice too, to think that some lucky person will buy my cars with low miles on (9k on the Black) and it's been very well looked after, far beyond maintenance!

Yes like you say works for some people, just need to do your research I suppose! 

I don't have a maximum mileage limit on mine

Do you know what the waiting time is for the Magnetic ZS ? 

Can't help sorry. My salesman found one for me in Stoke.

Sounds like one somebody ended up not wanting 

Probably... That's how the Black came into my ownership lol!

If it's exactly the spec u wanted and you didn't comprise on anything to get it quicker, then it's a good thing 

I'm not that fussy TBH. I do around 6k a year to and from work with some pleasure driving thrown in. I have reverse park sensors on the Black that aren't on the new one, but I have DRL's on the new one and just ordinary bulbs on the Black....

I just so love the Fiesta drive and even on 80% short trips I enjoy 43 mpg. Wife drives her 120 ZSE like a granny and it returns 45....

I'll have this maybe 2 years than see where my fancy takes me 😊

Sounds fair enough and in 2 years the new shape Fiesta should be out 

You should still have DRL's on the "Black" just not LED DRL's which they now have as standard across the range I believe, or at least they do on the Zetec S now 

Yes it's got the normal bulb DRL's as opposed to the led strips.

I think the worst bit of a PCP car is you can't really change them or personalise them as they're not your own, unless you want to undo everything when the time comes...

So I might find a running project car.... Not sure what yet.

I got 2 years yet and lots can change in that time.

My ZS is on PCP and I'm toying with the the idea of changing mine in the next 1-2 months and I have a catback custom exhaust, ST rear diffuser, Triple R side skirts and front splitter, all lights de-tangoed, colour coded windscreen washers, de-badged rear, K&N Air Filter, short Ariel (no doubt I have missed something,lol)

Its nothing I can't remove in a day and the Triple R stuff and be transferred over and the rest sold onto you lovely people on here, haha 

Really chuffed with my Magnetic! 👍🏻

Pixs 

It's the same as all the others lol, but I'll stick an image or two up when the light gives a better show of the metallic particles 👍

It's a forum, that's what people do, show off their new car etc etc 

I'd agree for modifications or rare examples but meh.... This is just a standard 140 ZS in Magnetic.
