    What does this car say about you?

    I needed a cheap car to commute to work. Not something I would choose to buy.

    Gets me from A to B. Fine for it's purpose, however worry about my driving it in the winter.

    March 2013

    Yes, I was able to put down a low deposit and there was an offer where Ford also contributed a value towards the deposit. I took the PCP option to allow for low monthly payments.

    Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

    Was an affordable choice with low monthly payments available.

    What was the dealer like?

    Very unhelpful. They were very keen for me to sign the contract, however my car which they said would arrive in a week, actually took 10 weeks to arrive. When I tried to pull out of the deal, they wouldn't allow me to.
