How hard did you look?

Harder than you it seems

That car is missing 2 doors.

The five door version from that site is priced at £12075
http://www.new-car-discount.com/cardetail/20231ncd/

Edit: or possibly £11416, but it's still missing the extra £600+ of options:
http://www.carpricechecker.co.uk/new/FORD/FIESTA/Hatchback-1.4-Titanium-5dr/97/40966/prices
but that suppliers website is "under construction" now, so who knows what they'll charge, or even if they are still in business

There's another supplier quoted at £11,570, but that is a used car. Their new price is £12,938

£11,653 plus options (£625)

Oh right so all the Titaniums I've seen people have paid extra for the leather.
My wife's 58 plate Zetec has all that bar the cruise control and Digi temp.

Yep, becuase you can add them as extras on the Zetec, a standard Zetec however dont come as standard. Are you sure they are electrically folding and not just electric? As in, when you turn the engine off and lock the car the mirrors fold in automatically?

Look here, straight form the horses mouth:

Ahh. Yeh you can have the pack added on the zetec for the fold up mirrors, headlights and rain sensing wipers and also pay £200 extra for the alarm.

So with all that on a Zetec, I would have been paying near if not the same as the titanium, with a few extras.

So which Bristol Street gave you the deal?

As far as I know most, of the things you'll find on the Titanium are extra cost options on the Zetec. With the exception of cruise control which is standard on the Titanium but isn't available at all on any other models.

I have a Titanium, but I don't have the leather!

Nice one Matt, thats a nice deal. The titaniums have some nice toys.

The best price I had was fron the Hagley Road Bristol St. They initially quoted the same old boring standard prices, but quickly price matched the others. Just a shame I signed on the dotted line with another dealer before they did. Oh well!

I cant believe my thread persuaded you to sort out a new car Your as bad as me!

Just one thing. Have you got assurances from the dealer that should delivery creep into Jan, they wont hit you with the VAT increase? Also, Ford are due another price increase Dec 1st, so make sure thats sorted too. Thats another reason I went for one coming into stock, as I knew I wouldnt have to deal with any of those possible issues. My car was built 24th October and delivery Friday

Oh and the Zetec Chippy is talking about will be an MK6.5 Fiesta I believe - same as the one I am just trading in. So, different specs when they were loading the cars with extras to flog them before the MK7 was out.

Will be sad to see that one go really, very nice little car.
