You've probably written this in another post, but what kind of Fez are you getting again?

I'm getting a WQ Zetec, & that should be here in mid June. Hopefully this hasn't changed...

You & I will virtually have the same car, with the exceptions of mine being a manual & not having a reverse sensor... Awesome.

Yeah, I'm not sure if when I bought my first Fez you could get an Auto Zetec, but just checked the Ford.com.au site, apparently you can now...

Zetec has always been available in Auto - I think what Danny was saying was sarcastic. I don't think he understands why you would get a Zetec in auto.... :monkes:

Semi - Auto... which still are not the pick of the litter in sports cars.

I'm not arguing the point though. It is ultimately up to personal preference

Reverse sensors on a Fiesta? That would have to be a first, small car with pretty good vision makes me wonder why you need those?

Sad about the waiting time on these rockets, i guess it will be worth it when it arrives tho!

Unfortunately Fiesta supplies are quite low. Fiesta sales were at a "best ever" in April so that reflects the current supply issue.

That's a bummer. Don't try to think about it too much, that way time flies.

Hope you get your car soon!

Apparently so. When I was buying my Fiesta, the manager of the dealer said the same thing. I was lucky enough I got mine pretty quick, probably because I didnt request any add-ons.
