1990 Ford Fiesta Bonus review from UK and Ireland
"Very reliable, ideal first car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It has started picking up heavy rust on wheel rims, body underneath and suspension.
General comments?
This absolutely a loving, ideal first car. Sturdy, reliable engine. It has never left me stranded on highways and motorways for any engine failures. Seriously, I never have had to call out breakdown service people in last two years.
I would love this car forever if it hasn't got rust. The level of rust is such a high that I have to abandon the car or sell it at peanut's price.
If you are about to buy this car, check the age of car. 7-8 year old are good example, but never choose 10 or more year old model.
