From the first day i bought the car new,It threw out blue smoke on starting from cold ,It went back to ford bridgend four times for cold starts,The first time they said it was the injectors,Then they said it was the heaters,Then the last twice they said there was nothing at all wrong with it,Still it filled my garage with smoke,On a few occasions it stalled on approaching lights or crossroads,There were no fuses in the windscreen heaters when bought,The last six cars i have bought have been ford diesels,But that was the last,I have now traded it in for my first foreign car,So much for Fords after-sales service,

i brought this car in dec..a brilliant comfy drive...been all over since passing my test...paid £3000 and worth every penny...i only have a few minor issues...when changing gear and pulling away it makes a squeek...i had a new ignition coil fitted cos water leaked in from the window squirty wipers...paid £100 thru rac...otherwise good on petrol..i have put 7000 miles on it due to lots of travelling..to see family and school runs..very economical thou and i love the silver lol colour although its gold....great little runner ..mileage makes me worry as it seems to clock up quickly got 55000 on the clock...but im loving it ..was told fiestas were worth there money ...passed mot no worrys 40 quid so well pleased...

Thought at first that it's a Fiesta not gonna be value for money and engine will poor but it's all the other way i found out that engine really nippy and that value was good but not too good i think that as an experienced car owner i think interior and exterior are the thing (And Fuel Economy) But what i think that ford should have done was to get rid of the awful Plastic interior because it spoils the looks.
