That is a disgrace.
I didn't know they were still about nor have I ever owned one. |  |

They've always changed massively and been redesigned etc fairly frequently, so the most recent version looks nothing like the original, so basically it's just a name they're retiring really. |  |

Can you still buy Ford's?
Thought they were finished by that boat like fiasco the Sierra. | | | |

Fiesta.
It probably sounds more fun than it actually is.
Those marketing types know their stuff. | |

They were good cars when they came out and still are - though completely different of course. I’ve never owned one, but driven most of the different models over the years.
They’ve always been decent to drive as it goes, but as another poster has pointed out it’s really just the name that’s being scrapped along with the current model. |  | | |

I've owned a Focus in various marks for yonks.
The mk1 was a fantastic car, drove like a dream. The mk2 less so, but still OK.
The mk3 has been awful, in fact the most awful car I've ever owned, terrible build quality, the door seals are all held on with double sided tape, which eventually fails.
The spare wheel recess in the boot fills with water after seals on some rear vents fail. The seals on both headlights have failed, meaning they both fill up with water in the winter. Snap with the rear light clusters.
And the power steering sometimes fails to initiate, meaning you need to turn off and re-start to get it working. The permanent fix is a whole new steering rack @ £900
Air Con compressor has just failed too.
I'm looking at Skoda's now. |  |

I've never been sure if the porn mags Escort and Fiesta were named after them or vice versa by Ford or if it was just some spunkalicious coininkydink .
Back in the 80's/90's we always (family and friends) dubbed the Fiesta as a female mobile hairdressers car. [Post edited 25 Oct 2022 19:39]

I embraced my Essex roots with the purchase of ST3 just under a year ago. Petrol prices aside it is an absolute dream. As much fun as it is possible to have in a car on your own. |  | | |

"Back in the 80's/90's we always (family and friends) dubbed the Fiesta as a female mobile hairdressers car." That was the Escort XR3i. |  | | |

I've never seen the RIP model, I did own an old Fiesta Ghia model in the 80s and my mate had the XR2 model. |  | | |

I tried to do one over Mondeo Owners Monthly but it didn't quite work for me. |  | | |
