I do like it, there is something I don't like about it though.. I'm just not quite sure what it is.
Niiiiiice.
That would be very nice in black paintwork, but still keeping the silver trim.
Thats exactly what I was thinking!Originally Posted by Lee @ SCAN

is it just me or does it look exactly like a fiat grande punto?
looks nice, really don't like the massive grille tho. Really, really dont like it!
Think they could've made it smaller, starting it lower. But thats what recent designs seem to be heading, massive gobs! Overall, not too shabby.
You've got to have a dream, if you don't have a dream, how you gonna have a dream come true?
The Ford Basking Shark.. Niiiiice..

Looks nice, very FIAT / Alfa...
Unfortunately, once Ford spec-up the base model, with 14" steel wheels, black plastic bumpers and no sideskirts / chrome trim / etc, it'll look very ordinary...
I hate it the look of it to be honest....
Grill is stupid too, as already said. How much air intake and cooling does a small car like that need anyway?
That is NASTY... poor poor Fiesta. The last one was the best looking one by far tbh.
It looks pretty good imo..but.. so did the new mondeo when that was a concept. Now that its out it has regained its nickname "mundaneo". Normally they change just enough from a decent concept like this to ruin it..few cheapy plastic bumpers, smaller wheels, different grill (love it or hate it) and it will just become another boring car you see 20 of on every journey
Eh? I see nothing to write home about.

My thoughts exactly

3rd on the 'Ford spec will ruin it' thinking
Spy shots of the rear suggest the concept is accurate according the one mag. I looked and it looked like another watered-down top-heavy Fiesta.
I hope not
I like the familiy reference in the glass-house and the overall idea but once again it'll only be the ST model that gets close.

Dunno mate, but I reckon the Grande Punto is a lot better looking. The Fiesta is just aggression and sportiness for the hell of it, whereas the Punto is genuinely attractive.
So, I don't warm to the exterior styling much. TBH, and you may disagree with me here if you wish, agressive looking cars seem to goad their drivers into driving agressively. And those C-pillars are not so much pillars as socking great columns. As a challenge to reverse park, it'll rival a Lamborghini Countach IMO.
However the interior looks much better, albeit that the buttons on the centre console remind me of Nokia phones circa 2002.
