Ford Fiesta (2002 - 2008) 1.4 Style 5d (05) (2007/57) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

It says I am a practical person with a car that does the job. i.e gets me from a to b without any fuss. Also it's purple in colour so it's a bit different!

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

They think its a good, reliable, nippy car.

Would you buy this car again and why?

I probably wouldn't buy this one again as it's petrol and the car I had previously in this style/model was a diesel and I preferred the interior of the diesel and the better economy it gave me.

What are you likely to buy next?

Fiesta diesel.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchised

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£5,000

When did you buy the car?

April 2012

Did you get a good deal and why?

Not really - I got less than I expected for my part-ex car.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

It was a similar model to my previous car.

What was the dealer like?

Typical salesperson suggesting I buy the latest model but I stuck to what I wanted.

What's it like to drive?

It's easy to drive and very nippy about town and on the motorway.

What's it like to park?

Very easy to park, vision is good all round.

Have you had any problems with the car?

I have had no problems with it mechanically but had to return it because of a damp smell - which is now sorted and I have had to have the windscreen replaced twice due to being hit by stones on the motorway.

What's most practical about your car?

The height of the seats suits me perfectly for driving and getting in and out of the car as I have a back problem.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

The CD player is very good.
