Ford Fiesta (2002 - 2008) 1.25 Style 3d (05) (2006/55) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

Fun, adaptable and curvacious.

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

They love it!! - My mum is always asking to 'borrow' my car. Although the boyfriend says its a bit too girly for his liking.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Yes absolutely, it's a really practical all round car. Economical and cheap to run, tax and insure (especially as I'm a young female driver).

What are you likely to buy next?

I've only had this car a year so am definitely not looking to change it just yet. However, I've always loved the thought of a convertible!!

Type of dealer you bought from?

Didn't buy from a dealer

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£3,000

When did you buy the car?

March 2012

Did you get a good deal and why?

I got a very good deal. I didn't go to a dealer (went privately) but as previously stated the car had very low mileage and was in great condition.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Reasonable price considering it only had 20k on the clock!! I had also heard that Fords were very reliable and I just loved the curvy look of the car!

What was the dealer like?

The private seller was very friendly and was happy for me to have my mechanic come and inspect the car.

What's it like to drive?

Lovely! Really holds the road well, it's very nippy for a small engine car! - Comes in handy when you are sat next to a fancy 4x4 at a red traffic light!! It gets up to speed easily and holds it well on the faster roads. Sometimes I have to change down gear on a steep hill but this is usually because I was in a too higher gear anyway.

What's it like to park?

It has a great turning circle and being nice and compact is easy to park. Nice for around town when it is busy and only the small spaces are available.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Nothing has gone wrong in the year I've had it!! *touch wood*.

What's most practical about your car?

The space!! - For a 3 door car it is surprisingly spacious inside!! - I'm 6ft myself and have plenty of head room and leg room (front and back!).

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

I love the 'curvy' design! - It's a very feminine car in my opinion, and suits me perfectly!! The sound from the stereo is great too, especially when I'm blaring out my 90's tunes!
