Telling my wife I am thinking about buying a new car for her- (I will take over her Honda Civic 1.6 turbo diesel for daily usage -to save money driving to Sydney and to save my licence -it uses some 4.0 litres per 100 on freeway!!!)
Asked her (led her) fuel economy is important, as is small nimble -check, check, remember when I met you you had a Ford Festiva 1.3 (in truth was a crappy Korean thing that refused to die despite my best attempts in later years to put it to rest), well I am thinking about a nice modern Fiesta for you, called a Ford Fiesta ST, it is built in Germany, - AND I Am over the line !!!- showed her photos etc.
She tried to derail things by asking about a new Honda Civic but I white anted that about crappy CVT transmission- she has always been a manual girl.
So here comes Fiesta ST - she will work it out when I commence late night drives in the machine .....
