I think it looks great mate and obviously a big improvement from your 1.2 :)

Have you got anything planned for it or is it staying as standard?

looks like my threads been hijacked lol.

But anyways those pics of the Cupra still don't impress me. I can only hope it will look better in the flesh.

I'm thinking of getting the wheels done gloss black. Someone has allready done this pics below:

what you guys reckon?

And also mountune performance have brought out a performance pack. Link here: http://www.mountuneperformance.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=141&Itemid=58

the engine mods sound interesting. But im not too keen on the exterior styling pack. Good thing they are bought seperatly!

Any other suggestions for mods folks?

Looks great :) Really like the wheels too.

The performance upgrade is quite pricey for an extra 20 odd bhp. I'd be tempted to fit an induction kit and performance exhaust and see what it makes on the rollers.

Cheers matey!

Yeah it does sound like an expensive 20bhp. The matter has been discussed like crazy over on the Ford forums. Apparently 'it not just about the extra bhp, it enchances the whole driving experience', as said by someone who had just had it all put on his car.:shrug:

Ive been looking for induction kits but none of the companies seem to be producing them yet, apparently Milltech are releasing an exhaust system very soon.:)
 
i really like your new car much better than the mk5 ibiza or even the mk5 cupra best thing about it is it dont look like a vauxhall like the new ibiza does the new ibiza is an eye sore. your new car is good to look at there will be plenty of added extras in the future for your car to bring it past 140bhp i reckon.
just give it time there will be loads of things.
followed a focus rs last night not the new shape and it kept spitting a litte flame every now and again looked awesome.

Cheers for the positive comments mate!!!

When i had the mk4 i always thought i'd progress onto the Mk5 and never really considered any other car. But when they released the pics and after seeing them in the flesh i was gutted and had to start looking elsewhere.

As for engine mods, im going to sit tight and see what gets released, apparently the 1.6 engine in the fiesta is very tuneable :shrug:
 
it will be if its the biggest engine there going to produce.
i must admit i was well dissapointed when the new ibiza come out not that i was going to get one anyway as i always wanted the mk4 with the 20v turbo engine.
was just flicking from the cupra picture to the new fiesta picture its made me hate the mk5 even more theres nothing good about it.
where as that new car of yours is stunning from the outside.

I must admit the fiesta turns heads everytime i drive it.

Regarding the interior, it really must be seen in the flesh. the pictures ive posted realy dont do it justice.
It has a real quality, modern look and feel about it, and the functionallity of the new dash is fantastic. Ive got my ipod hooked up and i'm able to control it all though the headunit. I can even use the voice control, say an album name and voila the album starts playing!

Heres a few night pics of the interior dash and dials:

They are quite good looking cars! I wouldn't have one personally, but they should be alright! Fords FINALLY seem to be getting there! Drums they are still obsessed with though! :doh:

Keep us updated with mods etc fella.
