Ford Fiesta (2008 - 2017) 1.6 Titanium 5d (2009/58) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

Someone who reads a lot of reviews and does a lot of research before spending loads of money.

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

Love it - most didn't believe it was a Fiesta because of its good looks and colour (Hot Magenta).

Would you buy this car again and why?

Yes definitely because it's such a joy to drive & park.

What are you likely to buy next?

A Fiesta unless something stunning hits the market in the next couple of years.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Independent

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£8,250

When did you buy the car?

July 2012

Did you get a good deal and why?

Yes - good mileage and Tech Pack included.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Good reviews.

What was the dealer like?

Friendly and helpful - not pushy.

What's it like to drive?

Brilliant, loads of fun. Handles fast motorway driving (90mph +, although this hammers the mpg due to lack of a 6th gear), and small, twisty, steep roads in the Mendips.

What's it like to park?

A doddle, although I tend to leave far more distance than I need to because I forget how small the car is.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Yes - battery inexplicably totally drained meaning keyless start was inoperable.

What's most practical about your car?

Ride on motorways (cruises comfortably at 90mph) and twisty, hilly country roads.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Keyless entry/start, voice control, climate control.
