Ford Fiesta (2002 - 2008) 1.25 Finesse 3d (2003/53) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

I'm careful with my pennies. I'm not after the looks that the drivers of TVRs get.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

It's an A to B car that we have because it's really cheap to run.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Yes, very cheap maintenance. Parts available from good stockists locally, and the scrapyard. Tyres very cheap.

What are you likely to buy next?

Something for the weekend. (silly engine capacity).

Didn't buy from a dealer

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£1,000

When did you buy the car?

January 2013

Did you get a good deal and why?

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Knew the previous owner.

What was the dealer like?

What's it like to drive?

High revving on motorway, however can really throw around the corners when you need to. Visibility is good. Gears have good ratio but could do with a cruising gear.

What's it like to park?

No problem at all. Mirrors are not tiny so can see the white lines when parking in a bay. Parallel parking is a breeze.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Only heater matrix and the coil pack - what do you expect on a 93k engine and 10-year old car?

What's most practical about your car?

Sips fuel. Will do around 300 miles on a tank driving nicely.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Just CD Player.
