Re: Ford Fusion?
Well, I've been and gone and done it!Just bought a Fiesta Flame, 3 door, 1.4l petrol; 2005 with only 22,000 miles on the clock, immaculate condition, 4 new tyres, and the spare is the original, unused
£2,600 which is right at the top of my price range, but I thought it was worth it for this car
I've spent the past couple of weeks searching, Googling, and calculating, but there comes a point where you just have to do it
Incidentally, I bumped into someone who was parking his Meganne, and told him I was choosing between that and a Fiesta. Quick as a flash he said that I should get a Fiesta. The Meganne has key cards and they are a real problem; and the rest of the electrics are a bit iffy too
I mentioned to the dealer when I bought the Fiesta that I had considered a Meganne, and he said the same thing - the key cards and electrics are a pain; I won't stock them

Re: Ford Fusion?
Well, I've had my car for nearly a week now, and I'm very happy with itSeveral trips round town & to supermarkets, and one longer trip, though even that was only about 5 miles. It's just too wet & miserable to go very far at the moment but I'm looking forward to going away when the weather improves
The acceleration is good, speed is also good, certainly for my abilities, and it handles well
Manual gearbox works fine and is easy to operate
Starts first time with no problems or hesitation
The only downside is that it has too many electrics, but that seems to be unavoidable with modern cars
