New car talk (finance) - worth it?

[Niall]

I think im going to have to test drive a GTi first - they've got one in the showroom and then make my decision - genuinely split at the moment.

Sorry...

You havn't even test driven one yet?!

Are you insane?!

Sounds like the idea of a brand new "special edition" has overwhelmed logic and thinking ability ginge.

Is it REALLY "special edition" too?! Or just badges and a few extra trick bits to hide how poor it is compared to the Fiesta ST?!

If you do go for a test drive, I am a bit dumb struck you havnt yet, then book a test drive in a Fiesta ST after and report back!




Also consider you wont be able to modify or touch a special edition brand new car till warranty is out...I bet you will want to within months!

Just done some googling...

Almost £3000 MORE than a fiesta ST?!

And at least with the fiesta they havnt only painted the back end of the car!!

Can't compare it to a Fiesta ST. Plus if you looked into it, there is a lot different between the special edition and normal gti.
That said your right. It's mad it hasn't been test driven yet.
