2001 Ford Fiesta Zetec S review from UK and Ireland
"A nice little goer"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Potentiometer wore out.
Gearbox high pitch noise and needs replacing.
Potentiometer went again.
Vandals constantly break the wing mirrors and jump on the car.
The suspension is so hard the CD player jumps all day long.
General comments?
Even so, I think it's a great little car. Bags of fun to drive and it's pretty darn quick. Also the brakes actually work well, unlike my previous Fiestas.
I would definitely buy the newer model when finances permit.
