Only dings in parking lot...
This car NEVER NEVER breaks!
This is my second Festiva. I bought a Kia Sportage because Kia makes the Festiva for Ford, but I have NEVER seen anything like the Festiva for reliability. I now have 5 for my company as transport cars. Excellent gas mileage; Never break; Small and maneuverable; and you can put incredible amounts of stuff in one! I put a 6' step ladder in mine - can you believe that!
About a latter in the car we fit a 6 foot tree in the back of our car my schoolbag and binder a stroller speakers and a humidifier and two fans so it was full and falling in to the back seat on to my niece and cousin. PS it was funny.
Back in highschool, my music teacher used to carry either 2 string basses, or 6 cellos, plus driver and passenger. Could just about fit a whole orchestra in the back...
I have two of these little gems. I own and operate an office equipment repair company. I carry all my tools, my manuals, parts, and very often whole machines in this little thing. It's amazing! Haven't tried the 6'ladder yet, but who knows!
I'm a musician and my 96 Festiva carries a full p. a system and microphone stands and a bass guitar rig. Such a great, unasuming little car that gets on with the job.

There is no such thing as a 96 Festiva. 1993 was the last year sold in North America.
That said, my 1993 L held a ton of stuff and started every day.
