Ford Fiesta (2008 - 2017) 1.0 EcoBoost (125bhp) Zetec S 3d (2013/13) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

That I like a car that's good to drive but want a bit of practicality.

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

Everyone has complimented it. I have yet to hear one bad thing said.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Without a doubt.

What are you likely to buy next?

Too early to think about my next car. I would however love a Toyota GT86.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchised

Did you buy this car new?

Yes

What price did you pay?

£13,995

When did you buy the car?

July 2013

Did you get a good deal and why?

Given about £2700 for my beat up old focus on the scrapage scheme they were offering at the time.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Ford were offering a scrapage scheme and I managed to get almost £3000 for my old focus which is way more than I could have got else where. Plus the fiesta Zetec S ecoboost caught my eye as soon as it was released.

What was the dealer like?

Very helpful and not pushy at all so I was able to decide on my own time.

What's it like to drive?

Amazing. I've driven fords before so I know their modern cars are good to drive but the Zetec S Fiesta is in a league of it's own when it comes to driving it.

What's it like to park?

It's a bit of a pain to park as the rear windscreen is so small but I haven't messed up with parking it yet.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Brand new car so nothing has gone wrong as of yet.

What's most practical about your car?

The endless list of driver aids. The most helpful being the new ford-sync which allows me to make and receive calls whilst driving, not something I ever thought I would find useful.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Auto start stop has saved my fuel economy around town.
