Hi,
Thanks for accepting me in te forum I am looking into buying a Ford (because in my family there has always been a Ford, from that marvelous Sierra from 1992) and I wonder if the Fiesta would suit me. I want to drive around 400k every week (4 times 100k) to go to the beach in Victoria from Melbourne and I'd like to carry 2 surfboards (2meters, 6'6'' long each) and me + a friend but I wonder if that fits... The thing is the only Fiesta I can aford (second hand) is actually 3 doors, which I find a bit annoying. Do you think I can fit all that in the Fiesta? What about long trips (like Melbourne to Sydney like once a year or so? Thanks!! |

Thanks for the replys!
Thats good need, I checked and the 2012 is 4cm bigger than 2006, so I guess it should be fine. I'm going to go see a 2006 1.6L Zetec tomorrow (second hand). Any advice on what I should look into? I don't know much about cars and I don't want to get "robbed". Thanks! |
