The Best ///M/Barge/General Rant/Look at This/O/T [Vol XI]
Discussion
Giulietta - Very dull and expensive
A3 - See Giulietta
Fiesta Zetec S (had Fords for years and is the obvious Puma replacement) - Had one - Great thing
Fabia VRS (friends of theirs had Octavia VRS for years and Mummy likes the drive) - Decent steer - VAT free deal just now
Mito - Punto in a frock - Avoid
500 Abarth (boot too small by the looks of it though) - Great fun, tiny though.

Fabia cropped up in conversation yesterday as Mummy Loon is replacing the Puma but is unsure as what to go for.
Shortlist thus far includes;

Balmoral Green ( just 'Balmoral' now), had one and hates it. Yet loved his old gen one. He did a 'readers ride' on it tooFabia cropped up in conversation yesterday as Mummy Loon is replacing the Puma but is unsure as what to go for.

You could add to the list RS Twingo and the Swift Sport and if she likes the shape of the Puma the Renault wind (No laughing at the back I drove one a bit in Italy last year and it was actually a good steer if a bit impractical).

ETA: Ignore the wind didn't realise back seats were needed.
tty new version which varies between showing me cars I dont want to having no cars listed. This is a bit pricey IMO

But it has now got me thinking I'd like to start improving my Puma culminating in a similarly engined car on standard wheels with a full interior. It would be like burning £20s in financial terms but I think I need a project and the thing is getting under my skin.

Fester Zetec S is a hoot and there's a fair chance my next demo will be one (that or a Focus Zetec S, but diesel).
If she's looking at new, the facelift is imminent, so choices are built 1.6 120PS stock units or factory ordered (Jan delivery) 1.0 EcoBoost 120PS. There's a 180PS 1.6 EcoBoost ST on the way too, can't wait to play with that one.
If used, then I might just have a few - as will Gandalf of course.
