I am drivinf Ford fiesta 1.6 SXI with ABS (high end model with leather seat )


The  car looks pretty decent . The Car desinged with utmost care in all aspects.,except very few things overlooked by the design team.1.Bonnet opening lever in wrong side . 2 Clock not well placed and not clearly visible.3.Gear shift lever could have been positioned few cms back. 4. rear seat could have been more spacious.5. No MP3 player 5. Alloy wheel is optional accessory

Great  things about this car
1. Very smooth engine, literally no engine noise during idling
2. Very good pick up  -- Outstanding and beats the competion
3. Driving is a real pleasure in this car-Outstanding and beats the competion very easily
4. Driving dynamics very good ,stability excellent, can feel the easiness in making turn at relatively good speed and still the car is stable- you feel sitting in asafe place. It is really Outstanding in this segment.
5. well desinged Lights very good looking and good for night driving
6. Reading lamps is additional bonus
7. Good looking panel and DTE meter
8. Blue tooth Nokia hands free connectiviy useful accessory
9. Very good (leather ) steering and good drivability. Also the steering looks and feels good. Excellent finish
10. Smooth spring loaded gear shift , this is the one of the best ( except the positioning of the lever few cms back should have worked better)
11. well built strong doors, good locking system, overll good quality  plastics when compared to other
cars
12. Good suspension  (but not as good as Optra)
13. Very good Air conditioner - without let down in vehicle pick up is great
14. Good Bootspace- useful to family packers
15. Flexibility in increasing the Boot space by foldable back seat

Overall  I enjoy driving this car ( only for driving dynamics, stability and pick up which in my view other cars have not matched) after testing  Honda City , Verna , Optra Royale
