It says that style is important to me!

Think it looks great and those who have driven it have been pleasantly suprised with just how good it is.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Yes - great value for money, a few glitches, which are to be expected, generally lovely car to drive and own.

What are you likely to buy next?

I had a fiesta before this, loved it, and am likely to go back to a ford - maybe a sporty diesel fiesta or focus

£10,000

September 2009

Did you get a good deal and why?

They weren't willing to throw in any of the extras for free, but then I was already saving 2500 off the list price with the scrappage deal

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

scrappage offer

What was the dealer like?

Very busy, but helpful and informative

What's it like to drive?

I would have preferred the diesel option, but the 1.4 is not as underpowered as the reviews would suggest, mine will charge happily up and down the motorway and has a fir bit of torque.

What's it like to park?

A doddle with the city steer, rear view is a bit obstructed, but the wing mirrors make up for that.

Have you had any problems with the car?

A few minor glitches - the windscreen mists up if it rains - although they have found no fault and the gearbox has been very `sticky`

What's most practical about your car?

city steering function and general size of the car.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

blue and me - much better than I anticipated!
