2000 Ford Fiesta Zetec S review from UK and Ireland
"Not fast, very common, same Ford Europe rubbish"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Tappets became very noisy on 4 occasions.
Main electrics for the dash and lights went after 10,000 miles.
General comments?
This car is the "fastest" the Fiesta range has to offer and isn't very fast at all. Compared to the Corsa 1.6 it gets destroyed.
Poor seats and driver postion give a harsh ride when coupled to the economy Ford Europe suspension.
Nothing compared to my previous car; Pug 106 1.6 XL.
The car looks nice, but there are so many!
Don't buy unless you have to.
