But yes, the Fiesta is a heap of fun. You will enjoy the beast. It was a great transition from the Fiesta Zetec into the 182 Cup... Same size, weight, driving dynamics (well, fun to drive and rev)... just the 182 Cup does everything a little better, and quicker : Oh, so another sleepless night tonight then? : :eclipsee_

Hi All,
Name: Rob Age: 37 Location: Melbourne Ride: '91 laser and '03 Toyota Camry Future car: Fiesta LX 5dr 5sp manual in Sub-Lime :eclipsee_ . Thoughts: I was pretty impressed by the car when i saw one up-close for the first time. It will be a good replacement for the Laser next year when it nearly runs out of rego. Glad i found this place. Regards, Rob |

Welcome Rob,
Its great to have you on board!! the fez is wonderful - so wonderful i traded it in for an XR5.. no really they are beaut cars and probably handle quite similar to my XR5. (i know it sounds odd but i think it may be true) Take care mate and hope that Fez comes zooming your way real soon. Luke

Yeah Marsfield in Sydney.
Have just added a nice Sony Xplod system into it. And just wanted to add electric windows and central locking but am really struggling with it. More so the central locking! Will add some mags and things like that over time as well! |

Not on me at the moment but i'll chuck some up tonight.
Yeah there aren't many of them about, there is another one up the road from where I am that is almost exactly the same as mine. I always get a wave from othe KA owners as I pass as there are so few of them. The KA was originally our second car and was only used when myself and my partner were going in different directions but as we have just bought a house we had to sell our Subaru so the KA is now our only vehicle. So I am trying to do a few mods to it to make it a bit more liveable? It is sooo economical I just need a few creature comforts to be happy driving it everyday. |

Welcome EVO
Goodluck with the mods. The KA is very popular in the UK and according to Top Gear is a cool car.
