MK5 Fiesta Zetec 1.25

Featured Replies

Hey guys,

Firstly, this is my first post, I'm Josh.

I have recently started driving, always had an interest in cars but never really had a need to get my license. However, I now have and I've been given a MK5 Fiesta 1.25 Zetec, now I'm not asking how to make more power as it's a 1.25 and that's kinda pointless.

I'm just wondering what sort of mods people have done to make it more personal to themselves? Quite curious to know this and also, I wouldn't mind a little better handling. Considering I'm only probably going to keep it for around 2 or 3 years I'm not too bothered. I looked at lowering springs, I know coilovers are generally better but probably not worth it in my scenario. Any recommendation for springs?

Also any other suggested mods would be cool too, I look forward to hearing from you all.

 

Cheers!

If it's handling you're looking for, i'd recommend a new set of aftermarket alloys. i did this to my last fiesta and the traction and all round better handling i got from the bigger alloys and tires was amazing. it also completely changes the look of the car. you can pick a set of alloys up for a decent price as well.
