1999 Ford Fiesta Zetec review from UK and Ireland
"Cheetah in Tortoises Clothing!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Passenger side electric window motor sluggish.
Brake Disc's Warped after 25000 miles.
General comments?
An excellent example of how to build a small car.
Engine is generously powerful yet economic for its size.
Steering is superb, especially when optional spoiler and alloys are present.
Brakes are excellent with optional Automatic Braking System package.
Not a family car, hence very little room from the front seats back.
Parts are relatively expensive for customer bracket.
Interior is very dated.
In car entertainment only comes with two front speakers including separate tweeters.
