Advantages: Great handling, nippy, good fuel consumption, good features Disadvantages: Slightly smaller boot than competitors, rear seats don't fold flat
I have owned my Ford Fiesta 1.4 16v since last June. My particular model is a 3dr, which is more rare in this Ghia specification. Features include: - Leather seats - Air Condition - CD player - iPod connection (optional extra) - Automatic lights - Automatic windscreen wipers - Electric folding wing mirrors - 6x2 Spoke 15" alloy wheels - Front fog lights - Chrome effect front grill - Trip/MPG/Miles to empty computer - Steering wheel height adjustment ... ...- Insurance group 5 - CO2 147 g/km - £125 tax a year - 12,500 mile service intervals - 80 BHP - 0-62: 12.3 secs - 45 litre fuel tank The car is a great little run around in town, and is very easy to park. Through 1st, 2nd and 3rd it is very nippy, so is the perfect town car. However, it also holds up well on the motorway, accelerating well in 5th to overtake the car in front. It is extremely comfortable with the leather seats, and it is also great ...

Advantages: Great fuel economy, FAST acceleration, excellent top speed, Great all round small car! Disadvantages: Lack of CD player (although CD Changers can be fitted), No Air conditioning, sunroof doesn't completely open - unless you take it off and put it in the boot!
I bought my Fiesta from a dealer for £3995 (from window price of almost £6k!) with new tyres all round, and in presteen condition. I've had it approximately 2 months now, and have already covered almost 4000 miles. It is an absolutely fantastic car all round. Great town/city car, very easy to park as visual all round is very good, it corners like it's on rails! and excellent for motorway cruising. 0-60 comes in under 10 seconds, so very fast acceleration ... ...capable (with 1 person and nothing in the boot) of just over 125mph - I did this on an empty airfield... The interior is very simple, with most controls on the centre console. This consists of push buttons for things like fog lights, heated rear windscreen, and simple dial-type knobs for the heating and the fan. It is a very simple car to maintain, and in the engine bay, everything is clearly labelled and easy to find.
Fortunately (touch wood) I've ...

Advantages: Great fun, loads of extras, cheap insurance Disadvantages: Space
...of a cracking deal that ford are currently offering to the public.
A brand new fiesta with air conditioning for free all for £8,995!!!
Wow! I hear you cry. But what am I getting for my money?
Well, the deal is not quite what it seems.
the good price is for a 3 door with no metallic paint. This limits your colours greatly.
So go for the metallic paint option.
ANOTHER £250!!!
OK, me and the wife are having a baby. Lets go 5 door....
ANOTHER ... ...focus. That is exactly what ford have tried to recreate and they do it suprisingly well.
The model we went for is a limited addition version called the Flame. This comes in 6 colours, Vitro, Flame, Black, Pepper Red, Green, Ink Blue.
We opted for the Ink Blue as there are not many about on the roads and it would be a bit different.
Ok, so what does the standard Fiesta Zetec come with?
Well, it has:
Key operated Central locking.
Electric front ...

Advantages: Ghia Model, Cool Look, Comfy Seats, Nice Fresh Interior Disadvantages: Slow Acceleration, Filling Up Problem
...its before the days when ford made there cars super sleak and stylish so its kinda in a place of its own in terms of look and features. The whole car is quite sturdy, however the smaller details inside dont feel as strong as you would like them and some have a slightly cheap feel. This car is deffinatly worth about £2000 but dont pay more than that. Good, Clean, Cheap, Reliable Fun the fiesta 1.4 Ghia ...
