Ford Fiesta: From Birth To Boy-Racer (DVD)

Ford Fiesta

Advantages: cheap and fun car.
Disadvantages: Not much space on the back seats but its a fiesta not a limo.

The Ford Fiesta 1.25 is a great car, ford first brought the 1.25 zetec fiesta out in 1996 on the mk4 fiesta, and from that day they put zetec engines in all the fiesta they brought out. The fiesta is still one of the best reliability and cheap car today. The 1.25 engine is a nippy car and is great for young students who what to drive and buy their first car, but also older people who would like a cheap car. i've got a fiesta 1.25 zetec and never had no problems with it so far. In my opinion the Ford fiesta zetec-s 1.6 engine is the best car and would love to have one soon as i saved lots of money up. The space in the fiesta could be limited for some people but for me there is plenty of room being on my own. with a fiesta you have to get power streering because its so much easyer than not having it. makes life so much ...

Review of Ford Fiesta 1.25

Ford Fiesta ST

Advantages: Cheap thrills, practical, easy to afford, you won't destroy the environment
Disadvantages: not too fast and involving as some of its competitors. Thats it

that the ST has a slightly gruffer idle than the standard car. *Engine* Under the bonnet is a reworked version of Ford's two-litre Duratec engine. Power has been raised to 148bhp and torque t 14olbft. As well as the increase in power, the ST has been given a new exhaust system, faster throttle response and the five-speed manual gearbox has been extensively modified. The ST is the quickest going Fiesta yet, hitting 60mph in 7.9 seconds. This is slow compared to the similarly priced Renualtsport Clio 182 Cup which does it in 6.9 seconds. While there is a decent spread of torque throughout the ST's rev, it saves the best performance to last and urges you to keep the tip of the needle on the right hand side of the tachometer's face. But while there's a definite kick to be had from driving in this style, there is a downside which is ...

Review of Ford Fiesta ST

Ford fiesta a great economic car

Advantages: Cheap to run, good spec, handleing, good motorway drive
Disadvantages: not many(if any)

I like my Fords I have had 3 a focus and two fiestas and never had a problem (best touch some wood now) at all this is the third fiesta I purchased. I bought the fiesta to replace a fiesta, which was the last of the old generation; I purchased the car for my wife who travels a long distance daily at least 60 miles a day. The car she had before was a .25 zetec, which were good but not that good on fuel it being a small engine pounding the motorway was quite thirsty so I opted or should I say I advised we get a diesel. I have a diesel focus zetec and it is great on fuel, having had the car for two weeks we have had to only put half as much fuel in as before on the older car. In a two week stint it used to have fuel put in at least twice, a tank a week this new 1.4 diesel fiesta only requires a fuel up once in two weeks. Bare in mind ...
