Which? Car review Ford Fiesta (2002-2008) Superminis Running costs and depreciation continued... Emissions Carbon dioxide emissions, and hence tax bandings, are low for the lower-powered and diesel models: 116g/km from the 1.6 TDCi, though the larger-engined petrol models put out up to 179g/km (1.6 automatic and 2.0-litre manual). How we test Emissions Petrol (CO2, claimed) Diesel (CO2, claimed) Model tested diesel 1.4TDCi (68bhp) manual 3-door (2003) diesel 1.6TDCi (90bhp) manual 5-door (2006) petrol 1.4 (80bhp) manual 5-door (2002) petrol 1.4 (80bhp) manual 5-door (2006) 142g per km - 179g per km 114g per km - 120g per km Emissions (claimed/tested) 117g per km/143g per km 116g per km/128g per km 158g per km/167g per km 147g per km/161g per km While testing fuel economy, we also collect exhaust gases to enable us to measure the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted. We also check whether particulate filters are effective at removing sooty emissions from diesel engines. Safety Safety and security Euro NCAP score Here is the video of the 2002-2008 Ford Fiesta hatchback Euro NCAP frontal crash test. Please enable JavaScript to access this content. ★★★★ Adult occupant ★★★★ Child protection - Pedestrian protection ★★ Which? safety rating ★★★ Active (crash avoidance) - Passive (crash safety) - Child - Pedestrian - We rate cars for safety using Euro NCAP crash test scores (where available), alongside our own comprehensive safety checklist. Uniquely, we also feed in results from our accident avoidance test – after all, it’s far better to steer around a crash than rely on the airbags... Security Security scores come from the security experts at Thatcham, who break into hundreds of cars each year. Most modern cars are very difficult to drive away, but are still too easy to steal from. Security Theft of car: ★★★★ Theft from car: ★
Which? Car review Ford Fiesta (2002-2008) Superminis Which? Car Survey results The Which? Car Survey is the UK’s biggest and best reliability and owner satisfaction survey. In 2013, drivers told us about 57,182 cars, covering more than 450 million miles in the previous 12 months (that’s equivalent to driving 18,398 times around the world). This unique feedback allows us to rate satisfaction and reliability for hundreds of new and used cars. Note Star ratings below are from 1-5 (1 is very poor and 5 is very good). Percentages shown under ‘Most common faults’ indicate the proportion of owners reporting each problem in the past 12 months. Brand Ford ratings Sample size: 5,409 people Overall owner satisfaction for this brand 77% Brand reliability - Dealer Sales Service ★★★ Dealer Servicing & repair ★★★ Model: Ford Fiesta (2002-2008) Ownership ratings sample size: 404 people Overall owner satisfaction for this range 74% Driving enjoyment ★★★ Ease of driving ★★★★ Comfort ★★★ Dash layout and controls ★★★ In-car technology ★★★ Styling ★★ Build quality ★★★ Practicality ★★★ Value for money ★★★ About our survey Brand ratings Everyone who takes part in the Which? Car survey tells us about their car and the dealers who sell and service it. We analyse this feedback across all cars to give top-level satisfaction ratings for each brand, including the brand’s reliability record over the last eight years. All star ratings are out of five. Model ownership ratings These show how owners score this car in 12 different areas, from performance to heating. Owners’ ratings are subjective – so may differ from Which? Car test scores – but they give a good idea of what the car is like to live with. Where relevant, cars are scored against other cars in the same class (e.g. for space). Owner’s View Excellent handling with very secure cornering and braking. Suspension is fairly refined over bumps, and not too noisy at motorway speeds. Owner’s View This has been a very reliable car for me for nearly 8 years, and the steering accuracy and response is a delight. Car goes exactly where you put it.
