How do you think the Fiesta will compare to what you already drive?
No but my wife owned one of these 20 years ago and is looking for somethiing similar. I'm hoping the Fiesta can come close. It's an Isuzu I-Mark RS with Lotus tuned suspension and a 1.6 dohc 4 with a 7,800 redline. Fun little car.

I have a MK1 Fiesta, but not road worthy yet. I owned a 2003 Mini Cooper S from November 25, 2002 to September 8, 2005. Great car, fun car, but they did have quirks. The dash layout was fun when new, but at some point you want a proper (modern) dash layout. Seats-fantastic! I had the two tone leather blue and black, plus seats accomodate someone up to 6'7" so I had an inch to spare. All that molding around the wheel wells rocker panels, too much. Would have preferred molding to be painted. Only 1 dealer in Michigan and it was 35 miles away and no loaner cars given, makes things difficult when it's a daily driver. The Mini made me spend money. I had to have a clear bra, different tail lights, stubby antenna, Union Jack mirror covers and valve stem caps, gear shift boot and shifter to match seats, 2 sets of floor mats, glove box organizer, package tray saddle bag, 3 sets of wheels, steel skid plate, changed the grill twice. Ford needed Mini to pave the way for quality small cars, for that, thank you Mini. Even if I were interested in a new Mini I couldn't get it (same model and equipment that I had), they priced me out of the market.

Never owned a B-Segment car but hope to with a Fiesta. A Fiesta Hatch would serve my needs more than a Focus Sedan.

Ni,I don't have won any B-Segment car.
But,In my opinion,Maruti Swift is the best b-segment car in India.Swift is an exciting subcompact that deliver style, space, fun and fuel efficiency without the compromise.
