    Do you want a fiesta or a tuscon?

    Something in between these 2 options...

    • Money not a worry change to the Tuscan.
    • Money tight or wanting to save, hold the Fiesta another 3 years until there's a good supply of 3 year old current model Tuscan's on the used car market and trade in the Fiesta to upgrade to one of them.

    Sorry. I meant, do you want to drive a fiesta or a tuscon?

    And do you need a tuscon, is the fiesta an inconvenience, uncomfortable, small, low, etc.

    Or just fancy a change?


    2 very different cars

    As I’m getting older I want a car that is higher then the fiesta, easier to get in and out,

    I have a can for work so I’m used to the height.

    I’m also looking at the new Kia Sportage tomorrow

    There’s so much middle ground between a Fiesta and a Tucson these days.


    would suggest:

    Ford Puma

    VW T-Roc / T-Cross / Taigo

    Skoda Kamiq / Seat Arona

    Toyota Yaris Cross

    Peugeot 2008

    All smaller and cheaper than the Tucson, but higher up than your Fiesta.

    If you like the Fiesta but want something higher, why not get a Puma?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 207 ✭✭Deisedarren


    When I think of the Puma I would think it would be the same height of the fiesta,

    must check that out tomorrow too.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 207 ✭✭Deisedarren


    the Puma I will check out

    the Kamiq is nice I Drove that as my work Colleague has one,

    don’t like the Peugeot’s or Citroens

    the Volkswagen’s look Nice

    The Puma is a crossover so is a bit taller than a Fiesta. You have the Kuga as well which is more the size of the Tuscon but obviously more expensive than a Puma.

    Seat Ateca is worth a look at too or Cupra Formentor if budget allows.

    I went test drive the kuga and Kia Sportage

    perfer the Sportage
