Got my Vignale 155 auto in August (June 21 build). Its got manually levelled fixed LED headlights too. Good colour choice BTW oggie1947oggie1947 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 03, 2021 9:19 am Picked up my Vignale on Tuesday its also the 155 with the auto gearbox. When I was browsing on autotrader I noticed that the 125 cars all had drum rear brakes but my 155 has disc's all round. Not sure if this is standard throughout the range but might be a way of spotting the difference. Another thing I noticed was the led headlamps on the earlier vignale appear to be self leveling, but on mine they are manually adjusted. Mine also shows that it is the 2022 model so ford have probably altered a few bits to speed up production.

My wife and I have each owned the 125 Fiesta for 8 and 6 years respectively. I did consider the 155 when ordering my Puma but we test drove the 125 and we felt that the performance was about the same as our Fiestas. I think the mild hybrid might compensate for the heavier weight compared to the Fiesta. In any case, I find that as I am getting older, I'm driving a bit slower these days.

The 125 has to work hard with 4 passengers, especially up hill and you need to use the gearbox more than you do in the 155.
I had the 125 in my B Max and thought it would be OK for the Puma, but the weight difference is approximately 1 passenger and I can certainly feel it.
It's OK though.

Question 2. Big
Well the hills are fairly normal hills in the main in the West Country, but some of my passengers are the size of two normal people. I worry whether the seats are strong enough TBH.
Could try remapping your 125,superchips do a good one,pushes power up to 147 bhp,which is good,plus they have been doing remaps for years
I think that the passengers are what affects the car, I've had no trouble on a trip to wales with 4 in the car and luggage.....Now those are hills...cianpars wrote: ↑Sat Dec 04, 2021 11:56 amQuestion 1.

my vignale has chrome 'studs' on the radiator grille, don't know if vignales still do but wonder if thats a decent visible exterior difference?

My 155 Vignale has the same grill, so it's specific to the Vignale and not engine size.
