The Ford Fiesta has long been the best-selling car in the UK, so it's clearly much-loved by the British public. But is that appreciation justified? Does the Fiesta beat talented rivals like the VW Polo and Renault Clio?

Pros and cons

New Ford Fiesta reviews

The latest seventh-generation Ford Fiesta is Britain's bestselling new car, so it's clearly doing something right. In fact, it's doing a lot right. 

Quite simply, the Fiesta feels much more mature than most other rivals in the small car class, with plenty of space inside a well-appointed cabin. It's also great to drive thanks to a fine-handling chassis and some superb engines, including EcoBoost petrol units. It's fairly cheap to run, too.

    Can Ford's latest Fiesta ST offer enough performance and handling sharpness to see off hot hatchback rivals?

    The new Fiesta has eclipsed the Focus as the UK's bestselling car, so Ford must be doing something right. It's no longer a cheap runabout, though...

Used Ford Fiesta reviews

The Fiesta badge dates right back to 1976 and, as Britain's bestselling car for most of the time since, there are simply thousands of used examples to choose from.

It may not be the most prestigious used buy, but it's a sensible one that's cheap to buy parts for and pretty reliable.
