My new motor - Fiesta ZS

[Jordi17]

Picked up my new Fiesta Zetec S tonight. Its a 2007 ZS in Sea Grey with 16k on the clock. 1 years warranty and MOT. Drives really well, just filled up with fuel, it goes really well. Traded in my Clio, got a crap price for it but couldnt really turn this one down due to it being in mint condition, full leather, best colour etc.

Heres a few quick pics of it on my drive after just getting it home.

 

[MikeB]

Looks very smart. Any plans for it?

 

[StevenMc29]

Petrol or diesel?

 

[Jordi17]

1.6 Petrol

Regarding plans, save some cash then do some bits and bobs, nothing major.

 

[Jordi17]

Will get some more better pics tomorrow once I have given her a wash

 

[alex-avfc]

Smart motor. Think it was a wise idea to change your mind again...

As for mods I'd stick with Ford OEM stuff like armrest, Sony stereo and maybe a set of Eibach Proline springs!

 

[SC03OTT]

Cracking wee car. Good colour too. Enjoy!

 

[Charlie.]

Sideskirts and coilys needed imo

Nice upgrade though

 

[Hazza]

Usually like these Fiestas, but those pictures don't do it justice! Not sure why tho!

Must be massive upgrade for u from a 1.2 Clio! =))

 

[Davis]

smart! best colour too!

 

[Matt_90]

nice upgrade mate! great colour

 

[.Simon]

Best colour. FACT.

Yeah finally made my mind up on this, once turned the first one down I still found myself looking at them, so just come across this beauty and thought I'd go for it.

 

[Jordi17]

As for the pics, I'm not the best at taking pics lol plus I thought they come out a bit blurry, esp an interior shot that I took.

After seeing all of the other colours, this is deffo the best colour too! IMO!

 

[Skinny]

For some reason just does nothing for me.

Nice upgrade for sure though lad. Enjoy. Could do with a lowering. Would make a HUGE difference to the appearance tbh.

I had one of these great little motor, until my ex stacked into the back of a lorry.

Good springs/coilovers and escos wheels and it will look perfect

 

[AlexG]

Nice upgrade dude! Really love the look of these.

Coilovers would be the only thing id fit IMO.

 

[Ben.]

the best colour! not a massive fan of these but a v.nice upgrade

 

[Gally]

Just remember you have a better gearbox than any 1*2!

Fact!

lol, u drive post man pats van though?

 

[Christopher]

Looks great in that colour.

 

[Jordi17]

Thanks lads for comments. Gave her a wash yesterday and got some more pics. Athough it is filthy again now!

 

[Leeshez]

Very nice indeed.

 

[Hazza]

lol, u drive post man pats van though?

?

Great comment mate.

Didn't say a bad thing about his car mate, i just said the pictures don't do the car justice.

However Jordi's new pics are much better.

 

[Jordi17]

Ye new pics are better although they seem more blurry for some reason. Took another interior shot but I upload it and it looks blurry, maybe the settings on the camera or something.

 

[ForceIndia]

Great choice IMO. Best warm hatch about. Tbh unless you get very decent stuff, and pay to have it correctly setup, I'd leave the suspension alone n

 

[Jordi17]

Yep tis mint suspension. Handles very well

 

[S23]

Awesome car! Love the colour mate, my fave for the Fezza's. Hope you enjoy it, newer pics show it a bit better too :rasp:

 

[Jordi17]

Cheers! Yeah tis a lovely colour, though just as hard to keep clean as black!

Glad I held out for Sea Grey, rather than Silver or Black.

 

[Mr Pants]

Had a black and always wished I'd gone sea grey it's a lot nicer!

Great cars. I'd say colour coded, side skirts and lowered on some Eibach's (Ford approved).

 

[MikeB]

Any interior shots?

 

[Jordi17]

Yeah I have they come out a bit blurry, i shall upload it now though

yeah may lower on eibachs, see they do either 35mm or 40mm ones?!

 

[Jordi17]

[Christophe]

Nice mate!! I just got one a month ago and think they are great little cars. How much did you pay for yours if you dont mind me asking.

you got any plans?

Here's mine. I'm just going to colour code, light tints and sort the front lights out as i hate the yellowness lol

 

[DrR]

I want a TDCI one.

Yeah they are really good cars, nice and nimble. I paid £7,250 for mine. Didnt think that was bad atall considering the spec and condition it is in.

I would like to lower it in the future, eibach 40mm I think. just gonna keep it simple with subtle mods as I did with my clio.

How much you pay, what reg is it?

 

[Christophe]

i had a clio as well before this was a 172 which got written off by someone and so took a step down to save a few pennies for the time being. really miss my 172

But i am glad i got the zs. nothing else i wanted in the same range. Mine is a 56 plate, 26k on the clock and i got it for 5.2k

 

[Jordi17]

That seems cheap. Was that the price it was up for or was you able to knock them down on it?

 

[Christophe]

it was at 5.5 which was already cheap but i offered 5.2 thinking they'll make me go up to 5.3 but they accepted straight away. wish i offered 5k now lol. had it hpi checked and was fine and had it fully serviced and checked which went through all fine. so guess i got lucky

 

[Jordi17]

Nice deal.

I am having some problem with my reverse gear, seems it doesnt like going in reverse every now and again, kind of clunks and the car shakes. Only does it in reverse though?!
