2023 Ford Fiesta 1.1 Ti-VCT Trend Hatchback

Description

I’ve had this Fiesta since new – it’s a solid little hatchback with a clean, practical feel. It’s a 5-door, manual, petrol model with Euro 6 compliance and a 75ps engine, so it’s not flashy but gets the job done.

The wheels are 15-inch structured steel with a sparkly silver finish and a nice ice blue illuminated cluster – the trip computer is actually useful for long drives. It’s got a full suite of safety gear: driver and front passenger airbags, side impact and curtain airbags, ABS with EBD, and ESC with traction control. There’s also hill start assist, emergency brake assist, and a flasher that goes off when you’re braking hard – all of which I’ve noticed on the road.

Inside, the seats are comfortable, front seats have manual adjustments, and there’s a decent bit of storage – open bins in the centre console, a 12V power point, and cup holders (2 in front, 1 in the back). The dashboard is bright and clean, and the headlights are LED with daytime running lights. The mirrors are heated and electric, and the door handles match the body colour.

It has Ford SYNC2.5, but no navigation or voice control – just basic audio and some phone features. I’ve kept it well-maintained, and it’s been parked for a while now in Brighton, Brighton and Hove. I’m selling it because I’m moving and just want to get rid of it.

It’s been a reliable daily driver, and I’ve only had minor maintenance. The price is £12,149 – not a lot, but it’s a decent car for the money. If you’re looking for something practical and safe, this one’s a good fit.
