As we here at DCB continue our summer annual leave we plan on updating whenever the hell we feel like. This is due to a few unusual circumstances faced by us here in Englandshire. Primarily the weather, long periods of summer sun have been all too common during the past two months, a rare event in Englandshire. So, as part of our research, we will continue to study the effects of enjoying a proper Britishshire summer. But not in a Ford Fiesta ST.
Our collective jaws dropped when we saw Doug DeMuro post a positive video about the Ford Fiesta ST. Our hearts sank when Doug extolled the virtues of the Ford Fiesta ST for being a used car bargain. It is true that most used Fords do become bargains and there is a common reason for that… because they are crap. The Ford Fiesta ST is a 197bhp powered hot hatch weighing just under a tonne, our detailed, empirical research tells us it is better crap than a bog standard crappy Ford Fiesta. One thing we don’t understand about used car valuations, when people say this car or that crappy Ford is a used car bargain they are actually wrong. A depreciating asset holds no true value unless you form part of a criminal network such as the Church, banking industry or the political elite. So when someone says this or that used car is a bargain it isn’t, losing money is never a bargain. Please note: Football will not be coming home to England, France will win the 2018 World Cup.
