Other Ford Fiesta (2008 - 2017) models:

  • Summary

    4 out of 5 4.0

    What does this car say about you?

    That I don't want to pay more than I have to for the convenience of having a car.

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

    NA

    Would you buy this car again and why?

    Yes, but a higher spec model such as the Zetec or Titanium. The soundproofing in the car is not great and is very noisy when cold. MPG is really good, generally get 60+ even driving around town. Probably fill up with a full tank (£45) once every 4-5 weeks.

    What are you likely to buy next?

    Probably similar or KA. Not really bothered about a big/prestige car even though I can afford it. I just need something to get me from A to B that isn't going to cost hundreds of pounds to run per month.
