Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Blistering pace for a Fiesta. It will quite easily destroy most hot hatches on the road, and not much can touch it in the corners. Once you run on boost the car takes off, and can easily match a standard Focus ST, but also the fuel is good if your cruising around, where the 6 speed box helps too. Ford have really got this car spot on, but the ride is a little firm. As long as you avoid pot holes, its a pleasure to drive and be in regardless.
What's it like to park?
Really easy as its relatively small.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Nothing touch wood.
What's most practical about your car?
I'd say its the boot as its a reasonable size, but also the size of the car is easy for parking.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
These Recaro bucket seats are awesome, and the radio is really good too.
