cosmicnutter_1993 Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Erm.... had 2 problems with one before, the coil kept packing up on it, and the other problem i had was the gearbox - (semi-automatic) kept fcuking up majorly. But apart from that they are good cars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
projectrs2k Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 this one is a manual so safe on that one but will watch for the coil packs going down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluliz Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 My GF just bought one. 04 plate Fusion 3 with only 37k on the clock. Tad cheaper than the one your looking at but obviously its done well below average milages compared to the 56plater with 3 times the average Great cars. The 1.6 petrol is the only one worth getting but i wouldn't buy one with more that 80k on the clock, the 1.4 diesel was dangerously slow. Not sure of the spec levels of the new ones, some are a lot better than other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithyandco Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 It's a fiesta for tall people... as Ford dealers seem to say... Personally couldn't help thinking it was a 5 seater Transit Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamGTI Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 yep just a fiesta thts been stretched up a bit. common faults with coil packs causing misfires. pre-cat hegos and driveshaft bearings rumbling. early ones sufferd with pcm probs but i think a '56' is safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
