Ford Fiesta 1.1 Azura 5d (1995/N) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Reasonable to buy but you don't get much for your money, not even a rear wiper.
Costs
Fuel economy average and currently costing £15 per 3 months for new oil.

On the road
Driving
Not bad at motorway speeds funnily enough, but rather lethargic in general.
Performance
Slow and with lumpy gearchanges. Awful on hills.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Never actually broken down, but lets just say it isn't ageing well.
Image
If it's clean and tidy, not bad.
Comfort
Pretty basic. Ride is ok but no support from the seats.
-
Security and Service
Security
An immobiliser but I doubt it would prove much of a problem if someone were daft enough to nick it.
Service
Shocking service from CG Ford. Never find the problem but happily charge you £400 for looking. New engine to replace oil burning but still doing it. £400 repairs to stop cutting out but still doing it.
