Tends to generate more rattles and noise than a zulu tribe celebrating new year! steering rack problems, worn bushes.


General Comments

I've owned the Ford Fiesta mk5 RS2000 for 2 years now and i must say its a great value for money hot hatch with good performance (0-60 in 8.3 132mph top end). Watch out for steering problems though such as play in the steering wheel, wandering, knocking through the steering wheel as these problems are quite common and in my case were caused by a worn steering rack. Ride is a little harsh but it's worth the sacrifice in comfort to experience the exellent handling. There not the quickest car on the road but if you're after a bit of fun get one, they're great.
