For There’s no shortage of standard equipment with the Titanium trim level, covering electric windows, climate control and CD stereo. Willing engine gives good performance.
Against The Titanium trim pushes the price of the Fiesta to quite a high level, so its luxury charms have a limited appeal. One of the priciest models to insure.
For some buyers, the high level of equipment and punchy petrol engine will be enough to convince them this is the Fiesta for them, but not us.
There's an almost bewildering range of engines to choose from in the Fiesta range, but for us the best of the lot is the more powerful 1.25-litre unit. 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, as there will always be good deals to be found. Ford's own website is a good place to start, as here you can find all the latest company offers, such as free equipment and low-rate finance.
