Hahaha I owned Ford Fiesta before exchange it to Mirage, and I really agrees with you, it's like night and day with the interior and seat, also steering wheel adjustment option's much better in Fiesta. But then again Fiesta's a class higher than this car, you should compare it with Aygo, and when you do you REALLY noticed how luxury Mirage is compared to Aygo.
Noise level is very much acceptable, if you driven Aygo for 3 weeks you will notice that Aygo's VERY noisy and makes it quite uncomfortable
