The best small car ever?

We simply love the new Fiesta. This is the best small car ever produced; it even beats my other all time favourite the Peugeot 206. The Fiesta drive well, is remarkably well built, reasonably priced and above all looks absolutely fantastic.

If you’re looking for the ultimate city car and do the odd long journey, look no further. Don’t bother driving anything else, it’s just not worth it. I have been in the car industry for over 13 years now and pound for pound this is the best car I have ever driven.

The model I drove was the 1.25 Zetec (£11,353), it’s got loads of power around town and you might even squeeze 50mph out of it. If you are looking to do longer journeys, I would recommend the 1.4 petrol (£11,842) or the 1.4 TDCi (£12,300).

Classy interior

The interior is extremely funky and very well laid out, the quality of the materials is high. My only slight moan, the boot is a little small and perhaps could have been slightly bigger. On the whole I think Ford have done a spectacular job with this Fiesta and I look forward to seeing the new Focus soon, if it’s anything like this we will be in for a real treat.

I do not get very exited very often about main stream cars, but every now and then one pops up which is truly remarkable and this Fiesta has smashed it out of the ball park….WOW!!!!
