2012 Ford Fiesta 1.25 Zetec 3dr Hatchback Petrol Manual

Description

So, I’ve had this Fiesta for a few years now and it’s been a real joy to drive — very reliable, easy to handle, and just about everything I’d want in a first car. It’s a 2012 Zetec 1.25, three-door hatchback, manual, and it’s been properly looked after.

I’ve had the timing belt and water pump replaced at 65k miles — got the invoice to prove it — and the rear axle bush was done too. The car’s been through a full service recently, and it’s just been serviced again. All four wheels are in great shape, no issues at all. Clutch and gearbox are smooth, no knocks or rattles — just a quiet, solid drive.

It’s been only two owners since new, so it’s clean and straightforward. Inside and out it’s been kept very tidy — no clutter, no wear. It even has parking sensors, and I’ve got HPI clear. There’s a full service history, and it’s got safety belt pretensioners too.

I’ve just had a new back box fitted, and it’s been a real upgrade. The insurance is cheap, fuel economy’s great, and it’s perfect for someone who’s new to driving — not a lot to learn, low cost, and really easy to maintain.

It’s not been on the road much beyond regular use, so it’s still in excellent shape. I’ve got a 3-month warranty included — not a lot of fuss, just a solid cover if anything comes up.

I’m based in Bacup, Borough of Rossendale, so if you’re around, I can arrange a quick view. I’m only doing appointments — can get really busy, so no drop-ins.

AutoTrader value’s over £2.5k, and with the warranty, it’s actually quite well priced. Honestly, if you're looking for a no-nonsense, reliable, easy-to-drive car with a clean history and low running costs, this one’s a solid pick.
