Afternoon guys

Just wanted to run something past you lot!

I have just come back from a weeks holiday camping in France. Whilst I was at the campsite as least 5 people came up too me over the course of the holiday asking me about my car!

It's only a 56plate Blue with white stripes but they loved it. Not like it was even clean driving over 500 miles to get there!!

Do they not get a chance to buy them over there? Its the last chance im going on a driving holiday, I was only getting 33mpg!!

No they've got them. I've even seen a French yellow (yes yellow) Fiesta ST not the Zetec limited edition
Hope you enjoyed your trip. They admired a car worth admiring

When we go to le mans they all come out looking at the cars not just the sports cars but even your bog standard rep mobiles, they don't spend money on cars like we do, not many countries do

That's why every manufacturer caters to England..that's where the real coin is.

No they definitely have them in France. When we stopped in Strasbourg on the way back from our holiday there was a guy with a black Fiesta ST came up to me outside our hotel and started chatting. He said that he was going to Ford Fair, but unless they were getting up very very early the next morning I dont think they were!

yes used to own a white st with blue stripes as well and they re not that common and even more rare in that colour lots of poeple use to come over and talk about my car and I never see the same one as mine while I own it and even so they were cheap to buy people would prefere buying peugeot S16, gti or renault clio 172 or 182
