They aren’t going though with the good will scheme they said,

That's bad news. Is "they" Peoples or Ford?  Any reason given? 

There are cheaper sources,of engines, btw:

Also it’s a 1084cc, they said it’s a 1.1 duratec engine.

Well, you never know. There's always a first time but apparently not from Gavin's next post!

Ah, so that's their get out. Its basically an Ecoboost without the turbo and it's not 1.0. And, presumably, not manufactured before 2019, though we never understood that caveat as 1.0 wet belt Ecoboosts were still manufactured after that date.

There's a bit more on the 1.1 in this thread (and the older one linked within it).

As you can see there was a theory that it might be less susceptible to failure than the turbo version, but as also mentioned that could simply reflect the limited sales compared to the 1.0 Ecoboost.

Thank Eric. 

So, great news on my son’s fiesta. I’ve now posted an update in the correct fiesta group. Check it out! 👍
