2001 Ford Fiesta zetec-s review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The 1.6 16v engine isn't cheap to juice up.
Leather trim on the steering wheel fades.
General comments?
The little zetec does Ford proud, they have produced 105 bhp of a reliable everyday car that loves to be blasted off the corners with its rigid sports suspension.
I love the way the car looks and for the few faults, have invested in a great little pocket rocket, my car is in a constant battle to head butt the horizon, and the engine is very wooshy and svelt, I would reccomend one to anyone, but paticurly to 17-28 year olds who just want to have fun!
