1990 Ford Fiesta S review from UK and Ireland
"Descent performance, cheap and cheerful"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The ABS light started flashing, caused by worn belts.
Valve stem seals, tappets, oil pump and big end shells wore out.
Door and boot locks are a pain (the rods keep dropping off).
Otherwise it has been fine!!!
General comments?
Mk 3 Fiesta's need a lot of TLC, more than a baby!.
