BINGO!

Dunno if we will get all the above colours from the UK. Remember, some colours only come with certain engines, and all we get is the 1.6L!

Amethyst looks interesting... esp for a Fiesta ST

Yes, it does. In Germany the Zetec is called Trend i believe and it comes in 3-and 5 door. And in the UK it is called a Zetec like ours and comes in 3-and 5 door.
I would like to see this car come here because i need a 5 door car, but i don't understand why it wasn't announced at the motorshow?.

Regards,

Rob

i can sorta understand the 5 door zetec, as the XR4 comes here it will replace the Zetec as a sportier car. this is a good move and also indicates fords intentions on the XR4.

mind you im not happy about it.....but at least mynes a WP and i dont have to really worry about it......hehehehe

Seems like it... I took a photo of the colour chart for the Fiesta and it wasn't on it. Doesn't seem like a popular colour anyway.

Maybe go with Sea Grey? Or Ocean?


At least we don't have the ridiculous colour names the new Satria has... like 'Brilliant Red'. Gosh, that's creative!

god damn rs027 thats cheap! i had to pay $13k+ for mine onroad, and mines late wp 04/05 with 20K on the clock!

On topic: its a shame that with the new colours theyhave not decided to have colour coded the plastic strips, handles etc. would make the car look much more visually appealing

She's a manual and will be used as a daily to keep my RS as a weekend only drive.




I wanted a Fiesta, but they were out of my price range as they seem to be holding their price in the second hand market. This one was from a dealer and a 13K I couldn't let it go.

Hi,

I got this reply from Ford today, regarding my enquiries about the new colours.


"Thank you for your e-mail to Ford Motor Company of Australia Limited (Ford Australia).

Ford Australia has no confirmed plans at this stage to expand our colour range or discontinue any colours from the Ford Fiesta range.

Thank you for taking the time to write to Ford Australia."


Anybody know when they will "be Confirmed"?.

Kind regards,

Rob

Photn started it...

Which brought to my attention Rob's 7 day old post which hadn't been replied to.

So I replied to help him out. That is afterall the point of this forum, right?
