    You're almost as behind as NZ tv :P
    Yeah I did do that, for 'teh lulz', mainly.

    I watch every new TG episode about an hour after it premiered in the UK, gotta love torrents.

    But thats just me.
    You're not alone

    It looks overwrought, overbodied and contrived; especially against the appealingly practical and cleanly styled previous model.

    I hate the current trend towards ever-smaller windows, which in turn brings overly thick body panels that are slathered with excessive 'surface development' to disguise the visual heft.

    Anyone else notice the uncanny visual kinship between previous Fiesta and Nissan X-Trail?

    Too lazy to post pics to show .. but its like they came out of the same design studio.

    I've got to say I don't see the X-Trail Connection.

    But the Murano...Definately.

    Exactly. It's just simply win because it's not overwrought.

    can you imagine this car with gigantic lulzstripes?

    I'm in agreement with the general new Fiesta is ugly consensus.

    The Mazda 2 looks so much better.

    The KA is about the same size at the 500.

    In fact, they are essentially the same car.

    This would have to compete with the Polo GTi.

    I know where i'd spend my money.

    ....Pretty much.

    At a pinch the Poo-lo.

    But more than likely something used.
