1997 Ford Fiesta Reviews, Pricing & Specs


















What owners say
"The 1997 Ford Fiesta is generally seen as a reliable and economical choice for first-time car owners. Many drivers appreciated its affordability and low maintenance costs, making it a favored option for those on a budget. However, several reviewers noted that the performance could be lacking, with some feeling it was a bit underpowered and not particularly fast. Overall, it stands out as a practical starter car."
Build quality is of the strongest you will ever see. brakes are very sensitive and react with the grace of a blue whale. incredible acceleration and perfectly balanced handling. very cheap to run and low maintenance required. Probably the best car available to anyone with a death wish/ suicide note. may experience a slight wibble wobble.
August 5, 2008it's very cheap to run, tax and insure. ideal for small family as it has 5 doors. the parts are also cheap and easy to get hold of. it's not dead fast but the 1.3 engine is enough for me at the moment. ideal first car :)
July 22, 2010Installed a Pipercross induction kit in it for more power! Added 14" alloys, Rear spolier, Rear 3D lights, All black interior.

January 28, 2008the only thing i didnt like was the headlights and the lack of power steering....the interior was alright not excately recaro's or anything but comfy...and the acceleration was quite quick..i would have prefered a mk 5 but as it was a birthday prezzie i didnt mind
December 16, 2008performance, it realy does not have alot of that, build quality is not too bad the appearance, i have seen alot better but it is fun to drive in corners!! gas mileage isnt that bad, not cheap when it breaks thou. but, it is my first car and is stil have it.
September 4, 2008This was my first car, it's fast and reliable. It was a 16v Zetec-S and it would be the only model I would recommend you buy.
