2001 Ford Fiesta flight review from UK and Ireland
"I think it is Fords best ever super-mini"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
None so far, but with it being a Ford I will expect the odd fault.
General comments?
This is an excellent car, it is very nippy around town and pulls away from traffic lights great.
The car has a 1.3 Over Head Valve engine which can be quite noisy at times, which is a good point becouse it is easy to service and maintain.
I don't send it to the dealers for a service any more becouse they charged me £100!!!.The next time it was due for a service I did it myself for £14!!!... a big saving.
The dealers are just there to rip you off, they charged my friend £145!!! and he was daft enough to pay it.
