i think my car is the bollocks. the standard speakers are WELL LOUD! peformance is quite rapid for a small engined car!! car only cost me £800 to buy, with 64,000 miles on the clock, my cars fun to drive and i would defo reccommend a ford fiesta to someone looking for their first car.

Pros — quick for a 1.25l
Cons — need new tyres :(

bought it as my first car back in november 2006. for a first car its done me proud. the performance isnt fantastic as its only a 1.25 ltr 16v, but its nippy in lower gears when it wants to be. had a little play with bits of it in my spare time, and generally always have it looking nice and clean and shiny.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    

Pros — sporty looks, does what i need it to, and polishes up well.
Cons — not the quickest car in the world

One of the last Mk5 models. With the Focus esque inspired type front nose. Had the 5 door Zetec model. Not the worlds best car and sounded tinny, but boy, what fun to drive !. It's 1.25 16v Yamaha develpoed engine was a joy to push hard. Creature comforts not the best, but attractive looking fascia and had to negotiate a cd player in the deal to buy the car. Was a short term ownership, but regret selling it on.

Pros — Great fun to drive. Pulls hard and responsive
Cons — Hard seats and uninspiring interior

Admittedly, this is my first car.  So i love it, needless to say!  For 1.25 Fiesta, with skinny tyres, it's great fun to drive, cornering just seems fun, no matter what the weather's like.  Acceleration is admittedly not great, but it is a 1.25.  As a result, it is reasonably frugal.  The 38 litre tank lasts me about 2 weeks, the servicing and MOT cost, well, bugger all, and parts, which don't need replacing often, are cheap, and easy to come by.  My only gripe is that the tweeters in the doors rattle when bass notes hit them.  But this easily sorted (just unplug them!)

Pros — Fun to drive on country roads, cheap to run and maintain.  
Cons — Annoying speakers, lacklustre performance.

For its price its a great little car. It goes well for its engine size and age and despite haning done 80,000 miles still feels tight and good to drive.

Pros — Fun handling and practical.
Cons — What were Ford thinking with that sad face???
