But, the likelihood of another flat and no options for changing a wheel annoys me. (lack of research when we bought it)
I've chased a wreck for a spare for months with no success so I am now thinking to fit a set of mags and carry one of the standard wheels as a spare.
Has anyone else got any experience or observations that might help?
Is the fuel consumption likely to be dramatically affected ?
Thanks

Just buy a spare, you'll probably find a wheel off the previous series Fiesta fits fine.
