I'm Anna, turning 21 soon and finally after 3 years of practising (yes, I was scared to get my Ls too), working up the courage to go for my Ps. I've been looking at the fiesta for a while now, and hoping (since I've been saving a while now) to pick a zetec 5dr manual out for my first car. I've been stalking keeping an eye on the forums here to see what people think. Only thing I'm worried about now is insurance and whether getting a new car is a good idea.

Oh, and if I can get it in Blue, I'll call it Jean. Bowie fan here

Car: 2009 WS Fiesta CL, panther black.

It's only a CL but I'm impressed with it non the less. I was driving a Mini Cooper before this. It was 8 years old and was costing a small fortune to keep on the road. Have had the fiesta a week now and I am actually loving it, which has suprised me, it's not like the fiestas I remember from my youth. The dealer had fitted a set of 17" rims and with those on and being in black, it looks really, really nice - imho.

Just thought I'd say hello and I'm glad to have found some other people that are loving the Fiesta as much as me.

It's not really my car. Belongs to my folks actually, but I thought I'd join up and say hi anyways since I recommended them the Fiesta.

Fez: May 2009 WS Fiesta Zetec 5-door Manual, Sea Grey

Best thing about it: It's NEW! it's my first new car evah! And I'm loving the iPhone integration - yet to get the iPod cable so I can play my music. I only picked it up three days ago, so I'm still getting used to looking at it and thinking, oh yeah, that's mine!

Worst thing about it: Half of the power I'm used to (refer below), and I swore I'd only ever own two-door cars :yeees:

Best Mod Done So Far: Do seat covers count? It's new (did I mention that?)

Money No Option Mod: Nissan 350Z?

Previous rides: Honda Prelude VTiR 1992, Honda Integra Type R 2000 - I do love Hondas!

Worst thing about the fez: going up hills, wet weather hill starts, pushing the clutch and brake at the same time, my head hits the roof, the driver seat wont go back any further, guys in trucks looking expecting a chick and to top it off I have to sleep in it this weekend. Mission Inpossible.

But for some reason I like it. :
