Fiesta XR4 Disaster!!

[fiestachick]

Hi!!!

Still getting to grips with 'The Forum'...think I'm sending private messages instead of straight up 'replies'...aaaaanyway.

I need some insight and advice from people on my wavelength!! Here goes.

Yesterday I posted my first ever thread saying how excited I am about the arrival of my new Fiesta XR4 in 2 weeks....well today I got a call saying that the colour I chose wasn't available...DEPRESSING!!

Now here's my dilemma...I want an XR4 without the stripes...I just want something a little more understated, so i can add some subtle touches to make it stand out (e.g clear rear lights). XR4's without stripes are not easy to get hold of (and the stripes cant be taken off after a certain amount of time without damaging the paint...apparently) I originally wanted Performance Blue...can't get it, so i then chose white...can't get that either as of today.

Here's my question to you Ford Comrades...Am I being too conservative?? Should I just get one with stripes and be done with it?? They look great i know, but I've never had anything quite so bold on a car...and I am in my late 30's, so would I look a bit odd in a rallied-up pocket rocket?? Out of the colours with stripes which looks the best??
