lamborghini · 16th February 2006, 22:25

Hey guys,
We finally got our Fiesta on the 24th of Jan.
I know i am posting this quite late as the car has already done 1500km but my comp hasn't been working.
Anyways i will be posting the review soon so wait for it.
Oh and expect better more detailed pics too soon once i get the time and the camera has batteries.
Oh its a silver Fiesta 1.4 TDCi ZXi and no mods are planned as this is going to be chaueffuer driven atleast for now. Waiting for my license.
Cheers,
Enjoy

Congratulations.

U can't plan mods anyways till Pete has some good news.

DCEite · 16th February 2006, 22:34

hey congrats..
Fiesta TDCi is an intelligent choice for city driving.

lamborghini · 16th February 2006, 22:55

Thanks guys,
we have taken the Fiesta to Pune also once but i have some issues with it which i will mention in my review. Just removed the rear seat plastic today.

Mpower · 16th February 2006, 23:05

Congrats Lambo. What was the OTR price and whats the FE like.

nitrous · 16th February 2006, 23:41

Forgot to ask:

ABS,yes??

lamborghini · 16th February 2006, 23:58

ABS was a no-no. Delivery was too long and those guys were irritating me alot.
OTR price is 852 K for company reg, Mumbai and average is 14kmpl in Mumbai and a Mumbai-Pune-Mumbai run in proper traffic in both Mumbai and Pune, it gave 16.
Should improve after service.
Those guys are saying we will have to wait 2 months for the RC book. What should i do?

SLK · 17th February 2006, 00:43

Hey congrats!....
Just wondering... RC book?... is it really a book?... or its just for company reg.
My Car's RC looks like a bloody credit card!

devarshi84 · 17th February 2006, 02:23

I dunno but Fiesta from the sides looks like built on Ikon platform.

Is this true?

btw Congrats on your new car LAMBO.

Sahil · 17th February 2006, 05:12

Hey Lambo, welcome to the Fiesta Club! I've been lackadaisical about posting pics as well. Have a wonderful drive! Cheers

The TDCI price is actually a few K more than the top of the line SXI; I guess Lambo went for diesel for the lower recurring running costs
