Ford Verve Concept

[subxero]

Randomly came across this whilst having a look on a few motoring sites this morning, it's being touted as a possible replacement to the Fiesta.

Must admit that is an awesome looking small car, much better than anything else that is out there in that market at the moment.

What do you think?

Looks like a Punto and Altea mixed together.

Didn't the Fester start out as the bottom end budget motor in the Ford range?

No 5 door version that? Would look ridiculous if there was but surely they couldn't just replace the Fez with a 3 door.

Looks like it should be a lot more powerful than a Fiesta though, if its 1.2-1.4l in that it won't suit the looks!

Oooh, a baby baby baby Astin Shame it will never look anything like that if it arrived. I'd pay good money for a small car that had a luxury interior that hadn't been cost cut down and paled in comparision to larger cars in the range.

Indeed unfortunately

that grille looks too Aston-esque

-edit-
d'oh i got beaten to it!

It looks like a fat 207.

That grille could work, but it's just too big and looks like the big-mouthed relative of the 407. I like the back and interior mind, they're pretty cool.

From what i've read, it isnt going to be changing much in shape from the concept to production.

the only changes they are making are;
Central pillar (they said it would be too much money ro produce without one)
Smaller headlights
smaller wheels as standard

so hopefully it should look a lot like the concept, as it does look rather nice, hopefully they'll make an ST version too

Looks like the Aston Martin Vanquish and Fiat Neuvo Bravo's illegitimate love child.

The Ka gets that honour now. New version of that will be out early next year, based on the Fiat Nuova 500.

I call fake. Look at picture 6; they didn't even photoshop the girl in properly.. her right index and middle fingers are missing

Plus the "graphic designer" placed her too far back.. there is no woman I know who drives with her body more than 6 inches from the wheel

She hasn't been 'shopped' in at all. Her fingers are there... Its just the way the light has fallen on them.

Ahh, good point, they are crap.

It looks like a fat 207.

More like what happens when a fat 207 gives birth to the illegitimate child of the BMW 1-series. I really don't like it, but the interior is ok.

 

[Hawk Tuah]

Looks good. I like it.

The hatch looks like it was lifted off a Rover 25.

oh i think a 5 door could work. *imagines*

 

[BigglesPiP]

What's the betting it's a 199 Punto underneath, the New Corsa is, and Ford are using the Panda floor pan for the new Ka.

I suspect it wont have Fiesta style pricing
