The Dark Knight Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Can't say I am surprised really. All things taken into consideration, What Car? has crowned the Fiesta as King of the jungle! http://www.whatcar.com/car-news/fiesta-vs-polo-vs-corsa/265758?utm_source=Silverpop&utm_medium=EMAIL&utm_campaign=WCAR%20ENews%20Bulletin%20%2824.04.2013%29&utm_content=article3a_headline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1g_dav3 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Shame it's an older Fiesta and not the facelift, would have blown the other 2 away even more in the interior department. Not gonna lie, the Corsa interior is one of the worst I've seen... I hated the Polo when I test drove it a few weeks back, felt nasty to drive. And the Corsa... I looked at one in disgust as I had to pass the dealership on the way to Ford? One I have always been interested in seeing is a Fiesta facelift vs DS3, if it hadn't been for my love of Ford's, the DS3 would have had my money.

The Dark Knight Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 It is the new Fiesta mate. The interior pic is of the old one but the actual article refers to the new shape and new engines etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a test drive with the DS3 a while back, looks nice, but the build quality is crap, the car had only 16k km and there were some nasty rattles in the interior, not to mention the drivers side door was not in line with the bodywork....

b1g_dav3 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Hmm, I have a friend with one and it's pretty decent really, what put me off though are the common faults with the radio system >.< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyday Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Big dave, you have a fiesta now? After having mine a couple of months and testing its nearest rivals, corsas, polos, the ds3 and the old st, I can easily say my money is in the right place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really wanted to buy petrol, splash it on the car and set it on fire :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkyR Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 I've sat in a Corsa VXR at a show once and didn't like it at all, I didn't think it really matched the outside styling. The Fiesta is much nicer inside :) And it seems to be a given now that the MK 7 Fiesta is the best handling small car money can buy new now.
