Ford Fiesta Zetec S

When my FIAT punto had to go into the Garage for repair, my breakdown company arranged a replacement car, which I then hired for the duration until my car was fixed. The car I ended up with was the Ford Fiesta Zetec S. less than 1000 miles on the clock, brand new car smell and acceleration to knock the balls off a brass monkey. I knew this was going to be fun. Getting into the car, everything was in the right place and the sporty seats did make the ride to work at 3am very comfortable. My usual trip to work was about 35mins, with this car, I can honestly say, you will struggle to keep it under 90mph. It literally just pulls away from ...  Read the complete review

When it comes to cars my boyfriend compares my attitude to my car like when I buy a new pair handbag... at first I love it then after a few months I start getting slightly bored and wanting a new car. I'm no way a car expert and no way claim to me but in my 5 years of driving I have owned 5 cars and driven 10 different cars which I can compare each of them against each other. Prior to owning a Fiesta Zetec S... I had owned the following cars Renault Clio 1.4 16V (my first car but it kept breaking down despite it only being a year old), Vauxhall Corsa 1.8 SRI (loved however see my review), a Vauxhall Corsa 1.4 SRI (liked but got bored of it and went off ...  Read the complete review

Now, I am not a fan of Fords. I never have been. I have always found them basic in the extreme. I have never liked the model shapes, faces or rears. They have never seemed to be able to make a decent executive or sports model and their middle-of-the-range fleet car (Mondeo – known in my trade as the Mundaneo) is unexciting to say the least. However, my boss has lent me her Fiesta Zetec for a month over Christmas and I have fallen in love with it. I like small cars. I will only ever own a small car because I don’t do enough miles out of town to warrant anything bigger. So, for the purposes of this review, I am pitching the Fiesta ...  Read the complete review

Haven driven an SXi Corsa for a year i decided I wanted a change and the car I chose was a new 07 plate Fiesta Zetec S (CDTi). I fell in love with the car from the moment I saw it, whilst the new style Fiesta's look easier on the eye, my older style Zetec S was simply stunning, with 17inch alloys and tinted rear windows it looked the bees knees. Underneath the great looks was a fantastic car, despite the car being a diesel, it was extreamly quick off the mark and you'd be hitting 70mph before you even realised, it is hard to stay within the speed limits when you have quite a powerful engine underneath you. Car is also built very well, I ...  Read the complete review

I previously had a fiesta 1.3 finesse which look pretty similar but without the sports and nice little features, I much prefer the zetec S and definately wont be changing anytime soon! The dashboard lights are a pleasure to look at at nighttime when driving, colours and clarity are fantastic! The seats are really comfortable and are slightly shaped to your back and the gear shift is small for quick gear changes. I've found the the driving experience is much better in a sports version of the fiesta. Its fun to drive, unlike the finesse which honestly was a little boring. The car hugs the corners of the road and you can get upto speed in the zetec nice and quickly if ...  Read the complete review
