I Just WANT TO Know how can I program my car. It is a 2016 FORD FISITA . I have never had a good car and he bought me some on. We have been together for 5 years he is 78 and my birthday is FEB 6. I can drive but I do not know what the diggets are. I am going to be 64. But he is a Sweetheart. I just do not what to do. I get out of the car and lock it. When I'm In the car and someone wants to get in the trunk I have to take my keys out so I can open the trunk. I went to the FORD dealier in Redding to get a book so I could find out. They gave a 2015 that was not mine but I felt that was CHRISTMAS. They gave it to me .But I did not really find out to much. HA HA I found the trip switch. That was so cool. I do not what the phone and the other stuff that is 🤣 m the middle of the dash. I can't find it. I am PROUD OF YOU GUY'S. My dad had a 36 Ford Coupe. It was AWESOME. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP. I APPRECIATE YOUR GUY'S EVERYONE NEEDS A GREAT HEART. GOOD LUCK GUY'S

More money when you have your own show

Thank you for such a great review! I just don't like couple things here: 1) 1:00 - how you kick the suitcase! 2) 2:25 - how you jump out of the car putting all your weight on the door! But again... all in all - very very informative!

Couldn't agree more! I've got a 14 plate, 1.6TDCI econetic Zetec. Do lots of motorway miles(around 70%) and get an average 65mpg! Also got the upgraded Sony DAB infotainment which does improve the interior.

Got one in black 125psi, with all extras. Great car for someone of my age 20-21. Insurance is a nightmare for anything higher power at my age and location

I had a 1.6 Fiesta Titanium for 4 years, I loved driving it, I had no problems at all then bought a 1litre 125bhp Titanium, I loved driving it once I got used to the tall gears. I now have a 1 litre red/black edition 140 bhp and really love driving it, the engine just wants to keep accelerating to the red line but I would agree the infotainment system is a mess and the sat nav is confusing to use compared to the Tom Tom I have. I think Ford put too much into the technical side of things that nobody will use, like "My key" and the voice recognition which is pointless. I don't like the fact the rear seats don't go flat and rear leg room is not good. It seems expensive for what you get but in my opinion despite its age, it is the best looking car on the road and is great to drive. I would buy another one but only if I got a few thousand off the price. If the Japanese manufacturers could design a good looking car, I'd probably buy one, but I think they are all ugly.

We used to get soft, squishy dash plastics in the Fiesta we get in Australia when they used to source them from Germany, but since they moved production for our market to Thailand we now have crappy hard scratchy plastics.

Reviewing Mazda3 hatchback anytime soon? A comparison of the 2016 and 2017 models would be interesting.

Nice to see Matt again...

Best car reviewer in KZread tbh

Hi mat, will you review Renault Clio 2017

Having bought a (used) 2014 model Econetic, I'd agree with the comment about the relatively firm ride (especially having owned Renaults previously), but disagree with the comments about the boot space (it's smaller than most competitors) and the driving position (I'm accustomed to a higher seat position, but when I jack the seat up then the view forwards is obstructed by the low top edge of the windscreen). Not only that, but because the seat cushion is very thin and mounted very low, there is no decent resting for the right leg unless the seat is moved a long way backwards, which means that the gear stick is a long way away (and it almost annihilates the rear legroom) - and I'm barely six feet tall. Also the rearward view is terrible - the combination of tinted glass, odd-shaped door mirrors and the B-pillar position in my 5-door model makes for not only claustrophobia but also a hideous blind spot (I have had to train myself to physically turn my head and peer round the B-pillar because passing cars literally disappear otherwise). Lastly, why NO room to rest the cluch foot? Honestly, that's a shocking deficiency in what is always touted as a great driver's car. It's not only a lack of space in the footwell, but also the clutch pedal crank is offset to the left, thereby unnecessarily taking up space to the left of the pedal. I never thought I'd say it, but I miss my Renault Clio which had a clutch foot rest, decent leg support and better stowage space in the cabin. The Fiesta is a mess by comparison. I bought it for the theroretical economy potential, but it won't give me better than 67mpg and that's scant improvement on my (more powerful, more tractable, altogether more usable) Clio.

1seipai Well, I actually bought this car (ST-Line, 125hp/pk) and I don't regret it at all. You think other brands don't use "cheaper" materials but that's not true. Maybe a bit more shiny/glossy (I don't like that anyway), but also "cheap". Even Audi uses a lot of plastic in the A1, A3, so what's the point. I actually think the materials are okay, in my opinion it looks very nice on the inside and it gives you a premium feeling. Leather wheel, Chrome badge/strip, other Chrome materials, nice dashboard design, good audio system (7 speakers). The nav system (lync/sync) isn't that bad either. It's a bit smaller than you would expect (in the New Fiësta model you get a larger one), but it works: 3D maps, bluetooth connection, etc. No problems at all. I would defenitely recommend this car. It has a premium feeling, it's fast, and it's sporty.

I have the same car but the Titanium version and I absolutely love it!

why cant they fix that reverse gear 😕 my mk6 does it as well

Hello. I hope in the future you can review the Honda Jazz and more 'super mini's' ! :)

Pity the interior lags others. The seats not folding flush is a bit grim for nowadays....... Yet they get the hard bits right : the handling and the looks! Does Ford employ engineers with IQs of 150 and interior designers with IQs of 50 ? Come on Ford, let your engineers loose because they do fab work

1:31 dat cut

I own a 2016 Ford Focus, some complain about Fiestas and Focus. Mine runs excellent and I refuse to replace it, except I might be getting a new Mach E

I’m about to sell my 2016 fiesta tit x. I just wanted to pay my respects, I really like it. It was really quite enjoyable to drive, was comfortable and reliable mostly. I’d actually reccomend the higher trim levels if you can find one for a good price.

Should have reviewed the VX-Line Corsa considering you're doing an ST-Line Fiesta. Seems a bit more fair than using whatever poor spec corsa you were using.

new Seat Ibiza is going to be king of the hatchbacks, any chance of a review when it it comes out?

I have a 2017. Here in the US by 2017 the only engine offered was the 1.6 non turbo gas engine. And most (including mine) were sold the 6 speed twin clutch auto. It's an interesting transmission. The first 2 gear changes are sort of abrupt but after that they're smooth. Overall I love my Fiesta.

@inscrutablemungus4143

9 ай бұрын

Yeah, the fiesta and focus automatics had really really iffy transmissions in this period. The manuals were all round beautiful cars, though. If only ford hadn't cheaped out with the dry clutch...

The interior is dated but it's still fun to drive and the heated windscreen is awesome here in Finland right now. The new Fiesta looks too similar to this and the back of the car looks boring, like a small Mondeo..

If the new 2017 model is released will this 2016 version still be up for sale?

Your Clarkson is spot on LOL

Please review a Seat Ibiza FR 🙏🏼

I don’t notice the noise but I will say I notice when it gets hot and bakes the car! The textured material for the dash and doors on my model I don’t know what the deal is but goodness me.

I recently got a 2013 fiesta 123bhp eco boost Zetec S 1L 3door Honestly it’s not bad Lots of stuff you could do to it But it’s nice as it is Plenty of kick

Mat, you should be an actor! I love to watch your reviews :) Fiesta: outside - yes, inside - no!

worth mentioning that all 1.0 ecoboost engines are identical except for mapping, so mountune can take all to 155 bhp without invalidating the warranty.

Tom New Because tuning a 1 liter engine makes so much sense. And you think it doesn't invalidate warranty? Of course it does! You modified the product. It will be YOUR task to prove it wasn't your fault if there is any engine damage later. Good luck with that. All these naive dushebags believing in what backyard tuners tell them... No company will ever pay if you modified the product, you would have to go to court for sure and would most certainly lose...because as I said...in this case YOU have to prove it wasn't your fault.

I agree with Mat, it drives great but the rest of it is not so good. The boot is really low, the back feels tiny even in the 5-door (I'm 6 foot tall), the dash design is not nice at all and the infotainment is crap. Even if you upgrade to Titanium you're not getting your money's worth. There is no reversing camera, the gps is mediocre but expensive and sync 2 isn't very good either. Also, in the 1.0 l turbo I test drove, it seemed like the 2nd gear was a mile away from 3rd. Did anyone else notice it?

Are these fiestas good for tall people I'm nearly 6ft 4

I currently have a 2016 1.0L Ecoboost Titanium and overall it's an excellent car. It hates reverse though and rear coil springs have a habit of breaking but apart from that it's fun and yes even though Ecoboost engines are problematic for the long age the car is actually reliable.

It's okay, 5th gear was made very tall on the Ecoboost, so you don't get a massive amount of revs constantly hammering away. Still wish they'd used the Focus Ecoboost / Fiesta ST's 6-speed box, so you'd have more evenly spaced gears in normal driving. But the IB5 box is cheap and Ford is... Ford.

Switched from a Fiesta to a Polo and completely disagree about the ride, which was far better on the Fiesta. Also the Polo (SEL spec) doesn't have basics like a glovebox light and ambient lighting

I swear I thought I was the only one that felt the whole "the car is little bit tricky to get in reverse" thing

Had a 15 plate one as a hire car for a few week, didn't like the 1 litre engine at all, slow on the motorway and barely got 40mpg which was odd, also sounds weird. The radio sounds good but the whole system looks shit and is awkward to use.
