An Oldie, But A Goodie

Advantages: Cheap To Run, Reliable 300k+ Engine
Disadvantages: Noisy, Sluggish, Not As Refined As Rivals

Fiestas, and me, we're in a love, I can't get enough of them, and I've purchased a 97 1.8D to get me to college and back, (about a 60 mile round trip each day.)

Now, I am a die hard petrol head, but the 50+MPG appealed, its a Fiesta, its Blue, I thought, I'll love it.

Me and "Sooty" fell out pretty quickly, after jumping out a mk4 1.4 Zetec into a mk4 1.8 diesel, I promtply revved the nuts out of the engine ...
...I thought, "I know these things are slow, but....." It struggled to get to sixty in two miles of clear, straight road, and the soot pouring out the back was causing people to flash their headlights at me.

One new exhaust and EGR valve later, (EGR valves are common fault on these engines,) she ran a lot more smoothly, and when she's "warm and wound up," she's not to much of a slug, but far from quick, or even nippy. ... more

FORD FIESTA DIESEL 1.8 LX 5 DOOR

Advantages: CHEAP TO RUN, CHEAP SERVICING, CHEAP TO BUY
Disadvantages: SLOW, CAN BE CRAMPED

...other consumables in accordance with ford and i buy the parts from Halfords. Timing belts should be changed every 70 miles according to FORD, this will cost you around £160 at a garage. As for tyre life i have done more then 20,000 miles on a pair of front tyres that cost around £30 each, and expect them to go another 10,000 before i need to replace them. Expect around 40,000 miles from rear tyres dependant on quality of tyre. INTERIOR: I have ...
...central locking, electric windows and some other extras. Power steering make all the differnce to the bottom of the range fiesta, on a heavy car like this you need power steering, the rest of the electrics can be seen as a bonus. Generaly the inside is of good quality, its what you would expect from a car of this type PERFORMANCE: Do not buy one of the cars if you want to get from 0-60 in under 10 seconds, its not a performance car, and without ...

Practical little car with no frills

Advantages: Cheap parts, economical
Disadvantages: Slow, minor electrical faults, noisy

Economy Superstar, 50 miles per gallon. Reliability I have had two diesel Fiestas. The first was so reliable that I bought a second. That wasn't. Oh well. So I would say reliability is variable. My current car gets through glow plugs and suspension arms like nothing else. Style Excuse me? Practical-looking. Acceleration Poor but ok once you are up to speed. Value for money Good. Parts are cheap and easy to get hold of. Good fuel economy. ...
...Minor electrical faults, e.g. rear windscreen wiper and radio only work intermittently. This has been the case with both of my Fiesta. Overall Good for those who care more for basic practicality than shiny bits and speed. The car for those who can't afford a diesel Polo or Seat Ibiza! ...

Advantages: Small and fast.
Disadvantages: The rust comes out to fast !!

Ford Fiesta - the most popular car in the group of SMALL cars (at least in Lithuania). Maybe thats why wee have chose this car in our research. The name Ford Fiesta has appeared in year 1976, when the first Ford Fiesta has been made (the old Fiesta). And already in 1989 a new model has been made. The 3 generation Ford Fiesta (to wich we have got used). In year 1992 manufacturers have improved this model: more updatings has been added and some Exterior ...

fiesta party

Advantages: reliable economical
Disadvantages: lacking in features

...car, I turned to the ford fiesta. It was a straight choice between fiesta and a peugeot 206. Price wise, for the same money I could get a newer model of used fiesta than the peugeot. The biggest downside in the diesel model is its lack of features, no leccy windows and sunroof, not even a cigarette lighter (just a space for it). The interior is basic, no console, upholstery is comfortable but not as luxerious as some of the top range fiestas. ...
...car, especially mine in bright ford red. Not being a bloke I wont go on about engine size and how it gets from 0 to 60 in whatever !! All I want to say is that, its a great little car,being ford its reliable, and spare parts are simple to get, it has saved me loads on fuel to work than my gas guzzling rover, and I think it looks pretty cool, as does my best mate jules who too drives one! ...

Do Consider Buying A Ford

Advantages: Econonical, Good Looks, Confortable Drive
Disadvantages: When People Are Concerned A Little Tight In The Back

Great car very economical got me from Sheffield to London and back on 30 pounds, I have 99 model which has a nice modern look, Comfortable to drive. Space wise it has a decent sized boot for this size of car which has the potential for lot more when you fold down the back seats EG I had my full size mountain bike in the back with space a plenty. But can be quite tight for space with a few larger persons in the back, Very popular car so easy to find ...
...normally set you back a good 40 pound + but with a little trip to the scrap yard 10 pounds got me a wheel and a barley worn tyre so there is potential there for a bargain. One last thing for younger of us, me an 18yr old male with Zero no claims is paying a couple of pounds over a grand with is still not cheep but for my circumstances a cheep car to insure, In all a good car all round. ...

Nice reliable car

Advantages: Very reliable, nice to drive
Disadvantages: cheap interiors

high so you can make turns fast without the danger losing control - mine came very well equiped for his year, 2 airbags, electric panoramic sun roof, 14" alloys, ABS, 4 electric windows, assisted sterring wheel.. etc... - one more thing this car brakes very very well, i had cars with ABS but this one stops imediatly. - i usally drive fast and the engine never says no, or problems came. Before i had an ford fiesta 1.1 '91, opel vectra 1.6 '97, seat ibiza 1.3 '94, daewoo lanos 1.3 '97, ford fiesta 1.8D '96, fiat punto 1.2 16v '00, and now the Demio that i consider one of the best cars i've owned. - the only thing i didn't like were the cheap plastic interiors... but i think is only looks, because the car doesnt make interior noises or skeeks. ...
