Default Bought myself a new motor...Not a FORD!

It's just a runabout for work, I still have the saph in the garage, but after having this for a week I'm wondering why I want to waste money on rusty fords....

I was out looking at Subarus and BM's when I saw this in the corner of a garage forecourt, only 5 months old and 1.7k on the clock so it's as new. Really good price so I just snapped it up. I have never looked at these and thought "Oh i'd like one" but this one just jumped out at me.

It's only a 1.6 but like I say it's just for commuting and is MUCH nicer than my Punto I was using before this.

I aim to get some nicer pics up soon, these are just some i took with my phone out in the yard at work, looks better up close, it's actually pearlescent white.

At first glance I thought it was a new Impreza with 18" upgrade on it... pretty tidy runaround.


Cheers,
