2000 Ford Fiesta Zetec-S review from UK and Ireland
"Excellent little car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only problem I had was the motor for changing from hot to cold air.
Other than that, I had it for 6 months and didn't spend a penny on it.
General comments?
This was the best car I have ever owned. It's a 1.6 16v 125bhp and seriously lightweight; maybe too light, so that it spins in rain with little on the foot pedal.
Handling is good, but they need lowering slightly; never had mine done.
The clutch and gearbox were spot on, as Fords usually are.
Very sporty, decent interior, nice kit and rims as standard.
Pulls quite nice, and with a simple induction kit sounds awesome.
If you have the chance to buy one of these, I would get one. I'd have one tomorrow if I could afford it.
