Ford Fiestas are some of the most popular cars on the market. They have been around for what seems like forever and have never let us down! With solid range and drive performance, as well as plenty of space, the Fiesta has dominated our roads since 1976. On top of the solid performance, the Fiesta range has lots of cars to offer.
Ford Fiestas have been popular since their inception in 1976. 22 million cars later, the Ford Fiesta has got people of all ages from place to place. Often recognised as one of the best in its class, the Fiesta is sturdy, reliable and fun to drive, the perfect mix for any great car. The later models come with greater fuel efficiency and tech, but the Fiesta has always been an economical car. With its strong reliability, there’s no reason why the Fiesta can’t be your long-journey driving companion.
Ford Fiestas can range anywhere from £1,000 to £19,000. All Ford Fiestas are, of course, now used vehicles, as the model was discontinued in 2023. The price of a used Ford Fiesta will depend on its age, mileage, and general condition, as well as the variant of Fiesta it is. Even so, for the maximum amount of £19,000, you will get a very good deal. Take a look at different Ford Fiesta prices via our car marketplace, and apply for finance all in one place.
The Ford Fiesta ST was a leader in the hot hatchback space during its production from 2018 to 2023. A car that packs plenty of punch is surprisingly quite economical too. In Top Gear’s testing, the ST averaged over 40mpg, and on long drives, it even rivalled the Ford Fiesta EcoBoost. The name obviously suggests a slick, exciting ride. But is the Ford Fiesta ST fast? The ST is both fast and fun to drive. You can get up to 197bhp and reach 60mph in 6.5 seconds. When you factor in that this is a Fiesta, it is really impressive. With the contours of a Fiesta making the ST nimble round corners, the added power makes the ST an unstoppable force not only within Ford Fiestas but also in the hot hatchback space. Buying a new Ford Fiesta ST is no longer possible, but there are plenty of used cars to choose from. Prices for used Ford Fiesta Sts start from £14,000. Take a look at the Ford Fiesta STs we have for sale via our car marketplace.
A middle-of-the-road option in the Fiesta class, the Zetec is practical and efficient. Standing up against its rivals, the Vauxhall Corsa and Volkswagen Polo, the Zetec is cheaper to run without compromising on performance. Zetecs come in both three and five-door options, with standard tech that doesn’t stand up strongly against the Corsa and Polo. Some cheap interior features hinder the Zetec, but for the price, it really does meet the mark. For a modest price of around £10,000, the Zetec is reliable and fun to drive, and leaves you a bit of spare change in your pocket.
An older model in this group, the seventh-generation Ford Fiesta was discontinued in 2017. At its peak, the MK7 was a great option. A fun car to drive with great handling in corners, the MK7, in some ways, was ahead of its time and could still provide a fun driving experience now. The looks may have faded slightly, with the interior now seeming outdated, but the MK7 is still a great option for your new car. A Ford Fiesta can set you back anywhere from £1,500 for older models to upwards of £10,000 for newer models.
Let’s take a step away from the sportier models we have spoken about. The Titanium is the reliable, safe option in the Fiesta range. A popular car with first-time drivers, the Titanium is a solid car that gets you from A to B. A fairly small cabin is common with all Ford Fiestas, as is fuel economy. The Titanium is fairly cheap to run and easy to drive. For people looking for a car that simply does its job well, the Ford Fiesta Titanium is a fantastic choice. With trademark Ford features, you can get behind the wheel knowing what you’re going to get, a massively underrated feature in the car market. Prices for the Ford Fiesta Titanium tend to start around the £3,500 mark and reach up to £15,000.
The Ford Fiesta Vignale is seen as a more premium option in the Ford Fiesta range. With a leather dashboard, the cheaper accents of the car, unfortunately, stand out more. Attempting to take features from more premium Ford models, the Vignale looks to go a step further than other Fiestas, offering more boot space and tech. In terms of the car itself though, the Vignale is seen to offer the same driving experience as cheaper Fiesta alternatives. For the slightly higher price, you are probably better off going for the Ford Fiesta Titanium. For a good quality used Vignale, you will pay around the £8,000 mark.
The Ford Fiesta Active is the SUV version of the standard Fiesta, with a slightly higher ride height and roof rack available. Considered a small SUV, the Active offers better handling than larger SUVs. With a higher price than standard Fiestas, you can expect a higher quality finish with more interior space. If you are a Ford Fiesta fanatic looking for slightly more space and a sophisticated interior, the Ford Fiesta Active is a no-brainer. For a used Ford Fiesta Active you will be expected to pay around £9,000.
A modern version of the Zetec, the Startline definitely outshines its predecessor, offering a modern twist on the car. With a sporty feel and modern interior, the Startline is a great option within its space. Slick exterior contours give the Startline a fresh feel, which is pretty similar to the Ford Fiesta ST. If you are a younger driver looking to save on road tax but still have fun behind the wheel, the Startline is a solid choice. A Ford Fiesta Startline is one of the more expensive used cars on our list, coming in at around £14,000.
One of the strengths of the Ford Fiesta is its relatively low insurance costs. At rank seven out of fifty for insurance, the Ford Fiesta is one of the cheapest cars to insure in the UK. As a new driver, the Ford Fiesta stands out. Solid, reliable performance combined with low insurance premiums makes it ideal for first-time drivers.
Given Ford's decision to discontinue the Fiesta, many are curious about its potential replacement. While Ford hasn't confirmed a direct successor, they've expressed confidence in the Ford Puma to fill the compact car gap. The Puma comes with an advanced EcoBoost Hybrid powertrain and advanced technology to ensure its presence in the modern age of driving is felt. Intelligent interior design helps the Puma hold more than it looks and makes it a reliable, compact Ford for the future. If you’re looking for a Ford Puma but are not sure where to start, visit our car marketplace and view over 1,000 Pumas available for finance.
While the end of the Fiesta's production is sad news, its legacy of reliability ensures that there are many quality used Fiestas on the market. If you're seeking a dependable and budget-friendly car, a used Fiesta is a great option.
