Ford Fiesta 1.4 Ghia 2006

4 star review

The 2006 Fiesta had undergone a face lift and is a good ride with impressive handling. This is possibly the best supermini available (although the Fiat 500 is extremely tempting...). Front and rear visibility are very good and it is a joy to park. The tyre noise is a negative though. This is a great first car, reasonably priced and fun to drive.

Ford Fiesta

4 star review

Not much to look at but a nice comfortable car to drive. quite a lot of space front, back and in boot for all of your shopping!!! used to drive my mum’s older model fiesta and this one is a very big improvement. very quiet and does great on fuel. all around a very good little car.... not really very many minus points to it.

Ford Fiesta Zetec climate 1.6 TDCI 2005

4 star review

The car is excellent to drive around town and is economical and reliable. The ride is harsh on bumpy roads but road holding is good. The 1.6 diesel gives a lot of torque (more than the 2.0ST) so is easy to drive and surprisingly quick. I test drove the 1.4 which I found sluggish. The negative points are the seats, I cannot get comfortable as the back slopes away from the shoulders. Also there is no space to put your left foot to the side of the pedal. Otherwise a fun car to own.

Ford Fiesta 2.0 ST 2006

4 star review

Cracking little car - drives like a go kart. Seriously needs a 6th gear as it revs highly in 5th at 70mph. I never got better than 30mpg from my ST, but it was excellent fun when putting your foot down.

Ford Fiesta Style, 5 Door 2005

4 star review

The ford fiesta is very stylish outside and inside. In the cab there is enough room to seat four adults comfortably the cabin is very spacious and the interior is stylish with little detailing. The silver CD player stands out from the dash board and is a nice feature. To drive it is very nippy in low gears but does tend to struggle at higher speeds. It is very easy to drive and viewing capability is extremely good you can see the corners of the car from driver’s seat and visibility to the rear is very good. The exterior of the car is nice looking with quite wide arches to house the width of the tyre. Two distinct lines run up the bonnet and are a nice feature along with the headlights and chrome grill sets the front of the car nicely. The boot is a little lacking in space and you would struggle to fit luggage for four in the back. Handling in the car is very good with very little body roll through the corners at any speed; the steering is very responsive and with the addition of power steering makes manoeuvring simple. All in all the fiesta is a solid well built super mini perfect for around town driving and can seat 4 passengers comfortably although the boot may be a little lacking you could still fit the weeks shopping in. Perfect for cities but not so suited to the motorway.

Ford Fiesta 1.4 2006

4 star review

I used to drive a Fiesta in the 1980s and thankfully they have come a long way since then. I had to loan a friend’s Fiesta for a couple of weeks because my own car was in the garage. I found it good to drive with plenty of space, good controls and an inexpensive mode of transport. I would not call it visually inspiring but it is a HUGE improvement on my first model!

Ford Fiesta 1.6 Zetec S

4 star review

There were two things I expected when I took delivery of my new Fiesta, a keen engine and slighlty jarring ride ( it is the Zetec S after all ). I got both. Over the course of the last couple of months I have come to love driving the thing though, the engine is torquey and gives you lots of punch at low revs although as always with a 'spirited' engine you find yourself wishing it had a little more power at times. Still half the insurance and running costs of the ST make it a far more sensible ownership prospect. Working out VERY cheap to lease at present!!

Ford Fiesta 1.2

4 star review

Good little runaround, gets me to and from where I wish to go quite easily, even if the street cred isn't high, you wont find a better little motor than this.
