This car is cheap and reliable to run. It is reliable also. I only use it for work and social occasions so not exactly built for motorways. Even so it would get you to any destination safe and sound. Space wise it is not overly big.This car is ideal for what I use it for.

At home in the city.

Always had family size cars but liked the Ford Fiesta. Looked modern, nice size but space inside (for a 6 footer). Parking a large car now in the city , even outside home was getting difficult. The Fiesta slips in anywhere. Nice alround view. Love the nippy engine. Went for the 1400cc. Still good on fuel consumption and the dreaded vehicle tax, paid twice as much with the previous car. Hope next year to go for a newer Fiesta.

I am generally happy with this car. I have had it for 16 months and I find it reliable and it has good road holding, especially since I bought 2 new tyres. One problem is the adjustment on the steering wheel. I am quite short in the body and the wheel could not be adjusted so that I could see the bonnet of the car better. I have since purchased a cushion that raises my body just that extra fraction, so that I have better all round vision now. It has taken me some time to park the car in a straight line, due to the strange wing mirrors. They give a distorted view of the car body. However I have finally got it right. This has never been a problem before on other cars.

This is my first new car purchase and I am very pleased with it. The car looks good, feels good, and is good. It is comfortable, reliable and economical. It has all the gadgets I need and more. I was recommended to buy a Fiesta by an owner and 2 of my friends have bought Fiestas on my recommendation. That is 4 happy Fiesta owners!

This is the second Fiesta I have owned, and I admit this one has a few extras such as electric windows, heated front screen, automatic lights and wipers, and adjustable mirrors from inside. Its a comfortable ride (though I am fairly short) and the power steering makes it easy to maneuver and park. It can carry large loads though my grandson's pushchair is difficult to get in! It seems to be quite economical on fuel, and spares and servicing haven't been expensive either. Overall, well pleased with my purchase.

I bought this car when it was a year old and it's served me well over the last 13 years or so. Engine is still sound, as is the bodywork (the fact it's garaged when not in use probably helps the latter). It's never failed an MOT, although as it's got older there have been a few advisories that I've had sorted where necessary. It's a pity the new Fiesta's are larger as I was planning to buy one, but unless I knock down my garage and build a new one, it just won't fit in there.

Great for city driving, and enough power for short motorway journeys. The safety belt though is not comfortable as it does not adjust enough. Great audio system.
