i love the way irish and uk peoples first cars are polos and fiesta types (which are still really nice) and Americans get a jeep wrangler or a mercedes at 16, lol.
😂 so true! It's because of how car insurance groups work in the UK and car insurance is so costly for new drivers so there is a group of cars that make it cheaper👌🏽
@@Fred-hx7uc The roads my friend, the roads are narrow. Europe is old. People built close to each others in a time when there were no automobiles. Quite different in USA were huge land mass and scattered population (specifically in West of Mississippi) meant we built highways easily.
I respect Uk people more though.....they have to learn in a manual car and for most of them, a manual is their first car. 80% of Americans only know how to drive automatic. I drive an automatic Chevy Malibu in States but I also know manual because my English uncle taught me this summer in a Vauxhall Mokka.
I have the pre-facelift model, with the 1.25L petrol engine, with 60 kw. I am the second owner, the car is 11 years old, has ran 135000km / 84000 miles and is in very good condition. Great car!!!
Don’t know if you’ve figured it out yet but the two buttons either side of your headlights are your front and back fog lights. The button on your indicator changes the dashboard screen info 😁
Hi Alice, I don't know if you know but I seemed to notice that you had an aux cable plugged in to the car. Did you know that if you take the USB cable for your phone and plug that in it will charge your phone, play through the aux mode and you will be able to change track with the steering wheel? It also shows what song it is on the dash screen. Charlie 😉
I have a Ford Fiesta eco boost I absolutely love the car what’s confused me is your dashboard is very different and I don’t have to pay any tax, but I suppose every car is different enjoy it!
It's like me I'm learning in manual but I know when I pass I'm getting Automatic cause I just don't like it, but my mom has manual so I can still refresh my memory from time to time. Also love the car 😀
You don't have to put your foot on the brake to start it. Only when you want to put it into drive. I have this car and it a dream to drive. Best of luck with it!!
Hi There, lovely Car, just wish they didn't change the Automatic Gearbox to the point where they have missed out the manual override in previous models, as well as that manual gearbox look and feel/ similar design/operation, I plan to get the Older version 2008-2012 series, overall great review.
Also, please do not ever use a sponge on your car!!!! Sponges scratch the hell out of the clear coat on your paint and you'll end up with loads of horrible swirls! Buy expensive micro fiber clothes. And wash with 2 buckets of water. 1 for cleaning and 1 for cleaning the clothes. Is that the 1ltr turbo? If so it has over 120hp and I dunno if you've tried, but find yourself a nice B road and floor it. The 1ltr turbo is absolutely rapid! And it's so underated. I got one through my insurance for 8 days and I ripped it everywhere lol
Alexandr I know fuel economy is important but I’m saying that my Fiesta gets 40mpg which is better than most cars. I don’t understand why you are saying it gets bad fuel economy
I have a 1.0 zetec eco boost similure to this(manual), and it didn't come with a spare wheel. It is classed as an added extra they are usually replaced by tyer sealing foam. Atleat thats the trend with new or nearly new cars.
The button on your indicator changes what is displayed on the screen between your speed and rev dial! So it should tell you how many miles of Petrol you’ve got left and Petrol usage etc! My fiesta is slightly older but I think it is still the same!🙂🙂
I love Bella. Would you please do a chatty video about how to find a car? I'm looking to buy a car soon and have no idea where to even start. Thanks, love your videos x
Here in America Ford is canceling all vehicles. Besides the Mustang. Ford Mustangs are my all time favorite. Your Fiesta is adorable. I feel in love the Ford Focus as well. Sadly Ford will not be making anymore here in the US. When I heard the news. I was very disappointed. I always thought the Focus was awesome and fast looking :(
6:00 if you hear a nice song in the radio, but you don't know the name, you can press this button and it will show you the name of the song and the artist who made it.
Hello Alice, very nice car! 👌🏻 I also drive a Fiësta, they're great and nice looking. But.. I have a remark: you talk about "scratching ice", but there's no need to do that. There's a button in the car (on the front panel) whichs allows you to thaw the ice on the windows in no time. It also works with moisture. You already knew that?
Alice that's a beautiful car that you have🤩 I was considering getting the same car as you but the ST line model. But sadly I don't know when it will happen as I love my super rare Daihatsu Cuore and want to keep it till it dies 😂
A lot of cars semi auto now as in this fiesta which is powershift. They are lovely to drive plus it holds the value of the car more than a manual as autos are more expensive to buy. I had this car and it was so nice to drive really smooth. But there was a lof of recalls on the transmission and I read a lot about fords powershift gearbox. And they have a lot of faults which is a shame. My battery in my car died and even after jumpstart it kept saying transmission error and would drive in limp mode took it to ford and it’s a common fault so anytime your battery dies you could be taking it to ford for them to basically just plug it into a computer and re-programme the transmission it’s ridiculous I recently got rid of my fiesta powershift. I think they’ve stopped selling powershift now not too sure
You can reset the transmission by putting your foot onto the brake and turning the key into the first position and then going thru every gear from the top p to sport and then back up slowly so your computer actually knows in what position it is
It will cost you an arm and a leg to get that insured though, been driving for 5 years trust me. If you picked a 1.0L Turbo(eco boost) those things are very powerful for what they are and insurance would be virtually impossible.
Did you know that you can leave your lights on? They turn off when you turn the car off it will tell you they are on but trust be they aren't lol. Just letting you know a handy trick
Hi! I was wondering have you experienced many transmission problems with your previous car? I hear small autos tend to have a few issues especially as they age Xxx
Please change your headlights to number 4. People always think that the lowest number "0" is pointing down, but its actually the opposite. 0 will be pointing straight up blinding everyone else haha!
I'm not saying that's not what it's supposed to be for. But i'm saying 0 is pointing straight ahead and blinding everyone else. 4 is pointing down at the road.
Yes but if your headlights are correctly alligned which they should be to pass a UK mot then on setting 0 which SHOULD ALWAYS be used unless loaded with passengers and luggage oncoming traffic should never be affected or blinded as you say. Your talking about a car where the headlights are miss aligned. As an mot tester when checking cars for headlight alignment we have to set that dial to 0 to perform the test.

@@WillLMC96 we dont have to learn in manual. we learn in whatever
It's because insurance is a b*tch in the uk
I passed in a manual Ford Fiesta, it’s also my dream car x just waiting to find one to buy
The button at 5:27 controls the trip computer, it displays data in the central screen between the rev counter and the speedometer.

T.Macca17 and why is that. I've passed in manual so I must have been good
Bella is amazing and Sally will be missed
Just remember about changing your transmission oil as specified in the handbook because automatic ford transmissions are brittle...
Thank you for this awesome review 😊 this convinced me to get a Ford fiesta car in the future 😉
Do you still have it and do it have Bluetooth?
I like your black ford fiesta we hired a Ford fiesta grey 2018 and it was manual and petrol when we was on holiday
It's lovely your fiesta
Awesome. Im tempted to get a new body ST Line as a daily driver so I can keep the mileage down on my Fiesta ST.
Do you still have the same car?
Plz tell me is it a good car. I want to buy it
Yes I still have it and it's great!
You don't have to put your foot on the brake to start it. Only when you want to put it into drive. I have this car and it a dream to drive. Best of luck with it!!
Some you have to use foot brake to start. Some dont
Hi There, lovely Car, just wish they didn't change the Automatic Gearbox to the point where they have missed out the manual override in previous models, as well as that manual gearbox look and feel/ similar design/operation, I plan to get the Older version 2008-2012 series, overall great review.
What brand of fiesta is this how do I get one just like yours any particular name?
i have one of these exactly the same model only mine is a diesel with a manual gearbox fantastic little car i would recommend to anyone
Is your car a zectec 2011? What year Ford Fiesta do you have.
Also, please do not ever use a sponge on your car!!!! Sponges scratch the hell out of the clear coat on your paint and you'll end up with loads of horrible swirls!
Buy expensive micro fiber clothes. And wash with 2 buckets of water. 1 for cleaning and 1 for cleaning the clothes.
Is that the 1ltr turbo?
If so it has over 120hp and I dunno if you've tried, but find yourself a nice B road and floor it. The 1ltr turbo is absolutely rapid! And it's so underated. I got one through my insurance for 8 days and I ripped it everywhere lol
Why is your steering wheel the other side and the drivers away is in passenger seats
Ania Karishma you obviously don’t know England mate 😂😂😂😂
Hi do you still have the feistier got a new one if so do a car tour
I want a 2015 volkswagen polo for my first car when I pass, I was debating between that or a ford fiesta zetec
OBLITZR I’ve got a Ford Fiesta Zetec 1.25 as it’s cheap on insurance
Alexandr what? 😂😂😬
Alexandr that’s a corsa, not a Fiesta. Plus, I don’t really care
Alexandr I know fuel economy is important but I’m saying that my Fiesta gets 40mpg which is better than most cars. I don’t understand why you are saying it gets bad fuel economy
Alexandr yeah, i do country driving so that’s probably why I get good mpg
I like your fiesta it's very nice autos are very good for you instead of manual I have got a juke auto petrol
Bella is so cute and sassy! She suits you soo much xx
I have a 1.0 zetec eco boost similure to this(manual), and it didn't come with a spare wheel. It is classed as an added extra they are usually replaced by tyer sealing foam. Atleat thats the trend with new or nearly new cars.
Yeah I realised that after filming! Such a strange thing to get rid of in modern cars
I know I’m late but I’m getting one tomorrow
The button on your indicator changes what is displayed on the screen between your speed and rev dial! So it should tell you how many miles of Petrol you’ve got left and Petrol usage etc! My fiesta is slightly older but I think it is still the same!🙂🙂
In between your Speedo and rev conter, the little thing below where it says pdns, that's your oil temperature
Hi, can I just ask how's the powershift gearbox been? Any problems?
I want to get this car and I’m just wondering if yours has Bluetooth?
is it diesel or petrol X
How is the automatic fiesta? Thinking of getting a 2009 automatic fiesta in green!
I love mine 😊
That button isn’t fog lights. It’s changes what’s displayed on the trip computer
Please what version is this? 2015?
I have a Ford Fiesta automatic and I love my car 😍😍
I love Bella. Would you please do a chatty video about how to find a car? I'm looking to buy a car soon and have no idea where to even start. Thanks, love your videos x
Auto Trader!! :)
i have a ford S-Max i have it for 3 years i think and i LOVE that car
I’ve always love fiestas. I prefer the newer fiestas though
Love watching your videos! I’ve just changed my car to a Ford Fiesta! I love it! She’s called flo! I also drove a corsa for my first car too x
This is crazy, I literally had the exact same first car and now have bought the same Fiesta aswell! Ahahaha
Did you learn to drive automatic or did you learn manual then change to automatic after? I've never driven automatic but heard its waaaay easier!
Probably should have waited until the end of the video before commenting....my bad! hahaa 😳
What year car did you upgrade to

What year is it?
Loved the art about the CD player not being a common thing to use anymore. My car has a cassete player... It's quite old, like made in 1982 old.
Good idea to blur out the number plate for the exterior shots!
Iv got the same car they are great fun by the way you don't need your foot on the brake to start it just when you put it in gear enjoy 👍
Good nice little modern car ...i feel ford are really upping there game the last 3 years or so ....
Yeah but like... an automatic fiesta doesn’t really “out rank” a good ol’ cosworth👀😂

My 2 dream cars are ford fiesta and porsche gt3 rs.
What year is this? I would love to get one
Petrol or diesel?
gas
It dont matter if the car is old its the battery that would be the problem that u have to jump.
Cingratulation it's a Nice car :D
Which driving school did you used having trouble in finding driving school
Mine was a private driving instructor I got recommended through a family friend :)
@@AliceThorpe thank sfor the responding back
People keep scaring me about the gearbox. Have you had any problems with the auto gearbox?
I like Alice she's super cute, fab informative video too!!
I'm getting a manual ford fiesta st
This car is the one I am hoping to get when/if I pass my driving test🤞🏼❤️
Melissa Brennan well insurance will cost more then a car smh
It would be way to expensive, well this model would anyway. Maybe a 2009 fiesta would be more affordable.
It will cost you an arm and a leg to get that insured though, been driving for 5 years trust me. If you picked a 1.0L Turbo(eco boost) those things are very powerful for what they are and insurance would be virtually impossible.
Shrapnel I've been driving 7 months and my insurance is 600 quid a year with this car
Way to much money my car cost £250 😂
Hope it’s not a power shift gearbox they are troublesome
My neighbor had one and it caught on fire in his driveway! He had it for like 8 months
I learnt in this car, in manual! Wondered why it was familiar haha
Did you know that you can leave your lights on? They turn off when you turn the car off it will tell you they are on but trust be they aren't lol. Just letting you know a handy trick
Only in Titanium spec, that's a Zetec. So no, you can't.
Just checked your description and you're 1 day younger than me lol. 22/07/95 here!
Bella's an emo car. Sally was awesomeness
Does your car have blue tooth?
How did you afford it?
rice andgravy Ford fiestas aren’t the most expensive of cars lol
Your vidieos are amazing💜💜
The trip button is to clear the recorded mileage
My boyfriend has a black Ford Fiesta titanium 5 door 1.6l and its £30 tax

Hi! I was wondering have you experienced many transmission problems with your previous car? I hear small autos tend to have a few issues especially as they age Xxx
You never put the info down below lol

Anisah Zainab 😂
My blue corsa was called Blugatti and my new black Fiesta is called charcoal, a car without a name is a car without a personality 😂
Red ford fiesta aka Ruby
Yeah my Corsa is called Vanessa.
Please change your headlights to number 4. People always think that the lowest number "0" is pointing down, but its actually the opposite. 0 will be pointing straight up blinding everyone else haha!
George Austers number 4 should only be used if the car is fully loaded with passengers and luggage. 0 is the normal setting.
No zero is pointing straight up and blinding other road users.. 4 will be pointing down at the road. Try it for yourself.
Im a MOT tester mate i no what the switch is for
I'm not saying that's not what it's supposed to be for.
But i'm saying 0 is pointing straight ahead and blinding everyone else. 4 is pointing down at the road.
Yes but if your headlights are correctly alligned which they should be to pass a UK mot then on setting 0 which SHOULD ALWAYS be used unless loaded with passengers and luggage oncoming traffic should never be affected or blinded as you say.
Your talking about a car where the headlights are miss aligned.
As an mot tester when checking cars for headlight alignment we have to set that dial to 0 to perform the test.
Should've got the ST
Insurance
Some people just shouldnt be on the road. Youre one of them.
I would love to know how you have come to that conclusion?
Mg name is Alice too and I drive the same car as you and it's automatic too.
