Hi, welcome2 bro. So, how's ur focus? so jealous u got a tdci focus.

You're in same consideration as mine. Last time also considering fiesta and mazda 2. They're actually depends on ur preference, what kind of driving style and feels that u like.
Why i chose fiesta:
1. Nicer interior design especially the centre dashboard, looks like transformer.
2. 6 speed dual clutch, (mazda 2 only 4 speed normal auto)
3. Voice control (eventhough it's a small add, but that's what make ppl around u amaze with ur car.)
4. stability control (mazda don't have)
5. Fuel consumption better than mazda (ths is frm online survey.)
6. More silent and comfortable ride than mazda(mazda develops more road noise) Ford also got noise but the engine sound. IMO, engine sound's nice actually.
7. Free 3 years service parts and labour.
8. It's a ford, quite few ppl use ford compare to Jap cars. And it got its own WOW features and design. ppl will look at u. Or i think they're actually looking at me kot haha...

And Mazda advantage:
1. smaller design, and easy to park (according to my gf)
2. no engine sound, (road noise only)
3. Since it's mazda, i think the spare parts are cheaper n 2nd hand value better.
4. Cheaper in price compare to ford.
5. The latest mazda 2 i think got dvd player with gps rite? (i think that's a plus one).
6. some ppl claim mazda speakers better than ford ( not sure though, coz mazda got 4 speakers while ford got 6)
7. If you're upgrading from proton or other Jap cars, mazda's easier to adept on the driving style coz it's a jap car. While ford driving style, need some time to adept back. At least for me.

That's all, btw from my research online, Mazda 2 and Ford fiesta actually from the same base. Mazda shares some parts in mazda 2 with ford fiesta.

ya, from my survey, fiesta's better than mazda 2. unless you're comparing with mazda 3 hatchback. it's more on luxurious. btw, one of the reason i buy Fiesta's there too many Jap cars. It's time to move on to European cars. hehe..

alexng, you need to push2 them loo... call them from time to time ask them to hurry. if not you'll just end up waiting.

Swift handling is better than the fiesta in corners. But the diff is, swift's giving good handling and control by sacrificing the ride comfort. WHile fiesta you're able to take corners and handle in comfort.
Plus, fiesta comes in traction control. so, i think it's a big plus for that. Taking corner in fast pace and at the same time, safely.

nice, dias. Now lets gather all the ford owners in LYN. Maybe we can like, organize a tt or sunday drive, perhaps?

Is there any discount for bulk ?

I'm pretty sure it's made in malaysia. There's a sticker tag on the headlight showing "made in Malaysia".Maybe that's y got probs with watermarks. But, as it's made in M'sia, shouldn't take long to replace.

Ouh, thanks2. need to on itunes first? i didn't on itunes last time. TS, another great info to share on how to pair with iphone. hihi..

This problem, i'd told sdac pj bout this and then he said it's a known problem and they'd forward this problem to ford thailand. That's all. anyone able to solve this problem on ur own arr? i think sdac's not very helpful in this case.

Yerps, i'm facing same problem. When totally turn the steering can hear that sound. What else can we do if they already said like dat. Even they don't know how to solve it.

mine is 2.8 frm public bank. 9 years.

Hi, u can search for Jim.Tan. He covered kl area n s'ngor i think. Mine was 2.8% if i'm not mistaken.

Ouh, i forgot to reply to ur sms lah, bro. Now that i recommended you, so now u owe me a lunch. This weekend i'm not available, maybe later i'll text you, can u hold it first for me?
