Another Newbie and Fiesta lover (couple of pics)

[Fled74]

G'day to all you fine folks. I can't believe I only found this forum NOW, after having my '05 Fez for a year.

I'm gonna ramble a bit now...


It's a Diamond White LX with the 16" alloys and rear spoiler - I wanted the body kit too but my wife for some reason didn't order it when she phoned our novated lease officer. Ah, well, at least I can put on a custom body kit later on. Something like this:

It's a quick pencil sketch that I rendered with Photoshop. This is what I'd like to do to it eventually. Our actual car now has the pinstriping, the Autobot (Transformers) emblems, blue brake calipers and a blue accented interior. I've also painted the upper grill white (I had some paint mixed at Olarenshaw's) and I plan to paint the side rubbing strips as well. You can probably tell I have a lot of free time during the day.

We didn't get a Zetec because there's quite a few bumpy roads in Melbourne's western suburbs where I live, and the Zetec's firmer suspension would have shaken it to pieces (also the price was a little out of our reach)

There aren't a lot of Fiestas in our area and my car turns quite a few heads. Little kids and guys my age who grew up in the '80s just love the Transformers emblems.

My wife and I absolutely love this car. I can't wait for it to be fully paid for so I can go crazy modding the engine and whatnot.

Anyway, thanks for reading this far. I think I'm gonna like it here.
