The Ford Fiesta has been a staple of the British motoring landscape since 1976, which means it barely needs an introduction. It has evolved over eight generations into a thoroughly accomplished small hatchback, topping the UK's bestselling cars list for years. At the end, Ford offered the Fiesta with a choice of five petrol engines. The most basic Trend model had a (rather weedy) 75hp 1.1-litre powertrain, while Titanium models and up came with turbocharged 1.0-litre three-cylinder petrol engines, available in 100hp, 125hp and 155hp outputs. If you had a lust for speed, you could opt for the Fiesta ST hot hatchback which featured a 200hp 1.5-litre engine. What really stood the Fiesta apart from the competition was how it drives. Cheaper models were quiet, comfortable and refined, while ST-Line and ST spec cars were engaging and fun (but firmer). Every model had pin-sharp steering and Ford's tiny 1.0-litre petrol engines could muster plenty of punch.
