2009 Ford Fiesta 1.25 Zetec - We’ve got it again!
Discussion
My wife purchased this car brand new in 2009 (you can read about it here if you like), but in 2012 we sold it to my Dad as we wanted a bigger car, and one with more doors. He has owned it ever since, looked after it and had it serviced every year. It is now on 67,000 miles and it’s back with us for the winter!
My Dad has two cars, but as he’s older now my mum and dad don’t really go out independently to the point that they need a car each, so they have little use for two, and with this one being a smaller manual car it barely gets used. With no suitable runabout car for me for the winter I was looking at getting a shed of some description and he asked if I wanted to use this instead, to keep it all running well.
Happy to do so and it’s been great so far. It’s such an easy car to drive, capable and comfy but also nippy and sprightly and the big bonus that it comfortably fits into all parking spaces without a problem; very liberating!
I’ve purchased some new carpet mats for it from Ford, but a couple of things need fixing (window washers and hazard light button not working), it is booked in with my mechanic on Tuesday to have a look.
It’s nice to have it back, the little pink thing that it is:
Pics from when we purchased it all those years ago!
