My little Fiesta has been great, 19,000 miles and going strong. Mine is metallic ink blue and its very much like black. Bugger to keep shiney, but looks great when it is.

I'll be sad to see her go.

But the replacement machine will be more than suitable

Spec over colour every time IMHO, buying the wrong colour car could mean its difficult to shift when you want to change it.

I havent got any experience of either of those cars though.

Hovi5, have you driven any of the latest Fords, both the Focus and Mondeo's I've driven were cracking drives.

Its come down to you at the end of the day, what you gonna do, buy a car because its the one you want or are you going to buy a car because a load of people off an internet site, most of which you havent met told you to.

Then get yourself a proper car. German (Seat are "germanized" too) or Jap (Toyota especially). Forget about those French Things With Wheels. Oh, and don't even consider going Italian. Ever.
