Shopping with the wife
Worzey - 1/3/15 at 06:48 PM

Been out shopping with the wife. Usually this is a painful experience but today we've been choosing her new car.

The brief was "fun and economic" which kind of limits the options especially when Tesla is out of budget.

Anyway, we've ordered a Fiesta ST3 in molten orange with black and orange interior. It a 3 door but as the kids are older it's not too difficult for one to climb in the back. Should collect it in 2-3 weeks

I think I've married a petrolhead. The question is do we add the Mountune kit and do it properly?

They are a top fun driving car. I've tested one twice now and have been swaying to buying one. the only thing that's stopped me is the tight rear access for loading the wee one.

Mountune kit is only 600 ish? And it's warrantied for 217 bhp. I say do it.

Bitten the bullet and added the Mountune kit

Hopefully she'll let me drive it when it arrives in a few weeks.
