Maybe not a big deal to you, but it will take me 2 years to clock 14k up.
So why did you buy a diesel
Diesels cost more than petrols because everyone assumes they will save money without bothering to do the maths.
Check out what sort of petrol Fiesta could have been yours:

Full leather on this one, as well as the rest of the stuff you wanted.
I have not restricted myself, I have gone for what I can afford. So instead of being so negative about minor things, be happy for me, that I have found a car with all I require (apart from an MP3 Player) with low~ish miles
Ok, I'm happy for you. You've got a car that you perceive to be the best for your needs with some benefits that make no odds. Congrats
It's a real shame, as I hate to see people making the same mistakes that typical car buyers make. You've gone for the headline things..
a) Economical, lots of mpg. Something which makes no odds, as you do low mileage
b) Low miles, so you've paid a premium for a low mileage car. Something which makes no odds, as the fact you do low miles means had you bought a 50k miler by the time you came to sell it, it'd be 'low mileage' for its age
c) You've restricted yourself to what you THINK you can afford becuase you didn't think outside the box to ascertain exactly WHAT you can afford
It's not the end of the world becuase the Fiesta is a decent car and the one you've bought is a sound example BUT you could have done better, you could have got more for your money, had you not rushed into buying. You asked for advice at midnight last night, less than 24 hours later you've already made a purchase on a car you know little about - last night you were still working out what trim level gave you what goodies.
A car is the second most expensive thing most people will EVER buy in their entire life. It makes it even more puzzling why so many people rush through the process
