Summary
What does this car say about you?
Nothing.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
NA
Would you buy this car again and why?
I would by the range above Zetec or Titanium. The LX is very spartan, no extras, very basic.Interior was quite drab, and the MPG was awful. Manufacture quotes 40mpg for 1.8, I rarely got more than 30mpg even with very conservative driving. Cost to tax was extortionate too.
What are you likely to buy next?
I bought a Fiesta Style+ TDCi.
