I had written my comments when I was just 3 weeks into the purchase of my Ford Fiesta. Its 4 months now and I feel I could say a few things about it.
Im getting an exceptional mileage of 20Km/Ltr !!
That includes 65% highway and 35% city traffic (Bangalore traffic!!!!)
Im very very impressed with the mileage. The engine is still very peppy and crisp.
A few words of caution though.... Service is expensive, Though the service people are friendly, it pinches when u see the bill.
Also, when I buy a car for 8 and half lakhs, I would expect that the company provide some basic Acessories like a full fledged secutity system (Autocop), Car cover, the chrome covers for fog lights and Alloy wheels. But sadly everything is an extra. Pretty disappointed in that aspect.
For someone who would do a lot of long drives, its a great fuel saver !!
It gives me optimum mileage at 70-80Km/Hr , it goes comfortably to 140-150 but then u can feel the engine grunting.At 80Km/Hr u sail like a bird. Very smooth on highways.
After 4 months of buying the car, I can very happily say that I have no regrets buying this car. Excellent value for money.
I do a lot of long distance travel , and this car is really working well for me. And im enjoying it.

    today only i had taken test drive of fiesta 1.4 zxi tdci on the road on which big speed brakers are there , but i did not find any difficulty with its suspension .A/C is also powerful.The company should provide some features which r in sxi model at the cost of zxi

    The report is true though the language is extreme but the ford guys are not the best people to buy a car from ,they harass you after you buy the car in terms of very very very very poor after sales service and absurdly priced spares.they donot have a good image in the public because of this

    Ford Cars are confusing, 1.4 Zxi(p)which exists on carwale and in showroom also.
    1.4Zxi(P)limited edition exists on carwale but in showroom I see 1.6 Zxi(P)limited for which they give quote as 1.6 Zxi(p)and features are not same as on net given for 1.6Zxi (p) , I will request the site admin to track the happening changes, May be new comers section can be started.

    ajay how this car performs depends on dealer services also! ks ford jaipur care for ur car and earn but harpreet ford gurgaon / delhi only earns money. they forgot to change fuel filter till 61000kms of regular services. car was giving a mileage of 13kmpl now car is giving a mileage of 20kmpl only if i dont drive it at more than 90kmph. you drive this car above 90 and if roads available use its speed of 150 for a looong drive and then check the mileage. its maintainence starts after 30000kms .
