If you think about it, the tall look of all small cars is simply because to fit taller people into the cars comfortably, they have to make the roofline higher. It just looks odd on a car that size even though on a larger car the roofline is the same height.

Yeah it's an increasing (and good) trend that small-cars aren't like sardine cans inside.

Whats the difference between a festiva and a fiesta rsgerry. Please don't hit or yell at me either

well, if you go to the megacruise that is planned, i wont yell or hit you. i will just sneak up behind you and ===>

seriously, the fiesta was a true ford. esigned and built by ford, they started making them in about 1976 and selling them by the truckload in europe. i know they sold them in the US as well, but i dont know how succesful they were. the festiva was built in malaysia (??). i think kia made them, but could be wrong. both are basically small entry level cars.

as for your idea of calling it a fuccus, i think it has merit. however, that nasty little self-appointed, guardian of public morals, pollie from tassie with the porn collection may not like it.....he is sensitive

I think the mega cruise is out of my diary because it's in Melbourne

It'll be a mega cruise just to get over there haha. I know what the festiva is - it's that little bubbly ford with the bubbly headlights. My mate from school had a red one. He was a big, BIG boy and there was still enough room to get 5 of us in and for him to give it a bit of gas. I liked it. However I am still lost as to what the fiesta is. I bet I know what it is but I can't get a "name to the face" as such. It does look like a Focus CL 4 door. Which I think is a good thing because it "donates" to itself some of the Focus' style and rave reviews.

there is a megacruise coming up in perth at the end of march. if you want, i can forward the email to you with the details.

for a fiesta, look here ==? http://www.fasterfords.com/

go to the classic section and look up the xr2 fiesta. that is the same shape as mine. only mine is a ghia, not a sporty model. as such, i have velour seats and a plastic woodgrain dash
