Ford Fiesta 1.1 Pop Plus 5d (1991/J) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Can be bought for £50 with a bit of "tax and ticket," left on them. May have to be disposed of at next MOT though.
Costs
Possibly the cheapest cars to get parts for! Service kit including plugs and all filters for less that £25 inc. VAT.

Driving
Starting to feel like a bit of a tin can compared to modern cars.
Performance
Poor, the little HCS engine rattles happily to itself all day though.

Living with it
Reliability
HCS engine is bullet proof, plenty of "second car" examples that don't get serviced from one decade to the next and still rattle away happily.
Image
Bit of a "shed" these days, but a good example still looks reasonable in the car park.
Comfort
More worn in, rather that excessively comfortable.

Security
Poor, locks easily defeated.
Service
Parts only.
