About the Ford Fiesta Mk7
The Mk7 Ford Fiesta facelift introduced the revolutionary 1.0-litre EcoBoost engine, a tiny three-cylinder unit that won International Engine of the Year three times consecutively. In Zetec trim, it balanced affordability with a punchy, characterful delivery that made it a favourite for both new drivers and enthusiasts. The chassis remains a benchmark for the segment, offering sharp, communicative steering and a level of agility that rivals many dedicated sports cars. While common on British roads, it is celebrated by collectors as the peak of Ford's small-car engineering before the shift toward electrification.
