Description

Ford Fiesta Style automatic finished in silver, a really practical and straightforward little car that is ideal for someone looking for an easy-to-drive automatic without spending a fortune. It starts up well, drives nicely and the automatic gearbox changes through the gears smoothly. The engine feels responsive around town and it is a comfortable car to drive, with good visibility, light steering and a compact size that makes it particularly easy to park and manoeuvre. For its age the Fiesta presents well overall and still looks smart in silver. The interior is tidy and simple, with everything laid out where you would expect it to be, and there is a useful amount of space for a small hatchback with five doors making it much more practical than many similarly sized cars. It would make a good first automatic, runaround, commuter car or something inexpensive to keep for everyday local journeys. These older Fiestas are refreshingly simple compared with many newer cars and parts are generally easy to source when routine maintenance is needed. As can be expected with a car of this age there are some age-related marks around the bodywork, so it is not being advertised as a perfect showroom example, but overall it remains presentable and has clearly still got plenty of useful life left in it. One maintenance item to be aware of is that it will require a replacement thermostat sensor, as the radiator fan does have a tendency to run more constantly than it should. This has been taken into consideration with the car and is something a new owner can have attended to rather than us trying to disguise it. Overall this is a genuine, usable automatic Fiesta that drives well and offers inexpensive, uncomplicated motoring. It is becoming increasingly difficult to find older small automatics that have not been heavily neglected, and this one would suit someone wanting a sensible car at an affordable price rather than paying considerably more for something newer. Viewing and inspection are welcome so you can see the car properly for yourself, and we are happy to answer any sensible questions before travelling.
