The fiesta is a bit more basic in general so could need a proper retrofit kit, would be a couple of hundred pounds then fitting (possibly in the same region).

Which is still a lot cheaper than buying a new car!

If your car isn't big enough and you need a larger car, you need a larger car. Buy what suits your needs.

Yes change it now, You want something that drains your wallet of an extra £400+ each month.

I bought a new car once, Learnt my lesson, Paid £7000 and sold for £650.

Now i only spend around £2000, Which i keep for about 5 years and sell for approx half what i paid.

Definately, was just pointing out it can be a bit more complicated than replacing the stalk - I'm not actually sure you'll be able to retrofit cruise to any fiesta of that age but I have no real grounds for suggesting this!

In any case unless you're doing hundreds of miles cruise gets boring, you constantly have to adjust it or cancel then reset anyway

Cruise is more of a want than a need alas i know it would benefit

Headed Windcreen and Electric mirrors would be more of a use to me

I have thought about getting these retrofitted but not done any research.

If i dont change now, id probably change vehicles again in 2 years time anyway

What do you really need electric mirrors for? Once they're set they're set. I can't honestly remember the last time I adjusted my mirrors, I use my electric folding mirrors quite alot but I certainly wouldn't miss them - The heated windscreen in fords is great, but again it's only useful a few months of the year and the fact you can see the lines on a sunny day annoys some people.

Handy electric mirrors when people of varying heights drive the same car regularly.
