For Air-con, remote central locking and electric windows are included with Edge trim, while the 1.4 turbodiesel engine delivers superb economy with decent performance.
Against The three-door shape makes access to and from the rear seats a bit of an athletic challenge. A high load lip in the boot’s opening also hinders access with luggage.

There's an almost bewildering range of engines in the Fiesta range, but for us the best of the lot is the more powerful of the two 1.25-litre units. It's pokey enough and reasonably priced.
Effectively, there are two types of Fiesta – a standard set-up with more compliant suspension and speed-sensitive steering, and the firmer Zetec S, which has consistently weightier steering. Either way, it’s superb, but we'd recommend the standard car.
Whichever model you choose, make sure you shop around, because there will always be good deals to be found. Ford's website is a good place to start: here you can find all the latest company offers, such as free equipment and low-rate finance.
