Stylish, but practical. Not a badge snob!
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Love the colour and gadgets. So many for "just a fiesta!".

Franchised
Did you buy this car new?
No

April 2015
Did you get a good deal and why?
About average. Got what I wanted in px for our Zafira, but not a lot off the Fiesta.
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
Trading in the Zafira for something smaller and economical to run. Wife wanted a Fiesta ad liked the colour and all the extras.
What was the dealer like?
Very helpful. Long test drive, helped fit child seat. However, failed to replace door handle on driver door as promised. Was very scratched. Instead tried to get away with a touch up job!

Its smooth, quiet and economical. Although it does lack a bit of power when the car has two adults and 2 children inside.
What's it like to park?
Very easy with parking sensors and reversing camera which displays on the rear view mirror - very clever.

Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing at all and don't expect it to.

5 doors and a lot easier to park than the Zafira.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Keyless entry, climate control, heated screen, heated leather seats, Sony stereo with Bluetooth, voice control, reversing camera, electric folding mirrors - where do I stop! got the spec of a high end merc!
