Summary

Recommended. Revised and refreshed - the Fiesta is as great to drive as ever, but now its quite nice to spend time in, too.

Styling

Revisions give the Fiesta some much needed character, especially the revised front headlamps. It no longer looks like a slightly deflated Focus.

Handling

Even the most basic Fiesta delivers a strong dynamic performance. The best car in its segment for simple driving fun.

Comfort

Bigger-wheeled versions suffer from a clumpy ride. Loud cruising and a cramped footwell limit long-distance endurance.

Quality

Tough construction stands up to family use well, new cabin trim is far better than crypt-like gloom of early cars.

Performance

Basic petrol engines underwhelm. Diesels offset loudness with strong fuel economy. Range-topping 2.0 litre petrol ST is quick but too pricey.

Roominess

Still one of the larger superminis, the five-door offers decent space for occupants although the lower roofline of the three-door limits rear headroom. Decently sized boot.

Costs

Low-price parts and servicing make the Fiesta a very cheap car to run, especially with one of the fuel-sipping diesel engines. Petrol motors cant match the fuel economy of more modern rivals.

Value

Despite keen pricing any potential Fiesta buyers should hold out for a healthy discount. Equipment levels are reasonable on mid-range cars, but the base models are very basic.

Stereo

All versions come with a single-slot CD player as standard with an in-dash six-disc changer is a good value upgrade. Satnav, voice recognition and even Bluetooth phone connectivity are available as high-tech options.
