- The Ford Ecosport's finally gone off sale, but it could still represent cracking value as a used SUV. Join Rebecca Jackson as she shows you around the Ecosport, including a look at its (funky opening) boot, interior, driving experience and engine choices. Would you pick it over a Puma? Let us know in the comments…

I have a 2018 since last Oct and love it. I'm single and don't need a lot of space. Love the heated seats for I have back issues.
Proud Owner of Ford Ecosport 1.5ltr Petrol Engine since 2014..
Iv just brought one today I’m seeing mixed reviews! Is it a good car? If anything goes wrong are parts not to expensive
@chantellemcleod5524 it's a great little car ..enjoy it..parts are affordable but no modern car has cheap parts everything is computerised nowadays.
I've got the 1.5 deisel AWD ST, I think the interior is realy well appointed, leather and alcantara, contols feel premium, the styling is unique like a tonka toy. I think its realy a fun way to get arround.
I’ve got one and love it!
My friend traded up to a puma from an eco sport and wish she hadn’t, she preferred the driving position and misses the bigger boot
is it still cold over there in the UK right now? (the heavy jacket) it's almost 83 degree here today and I wish the weather is cooler. :(
Yes it is cold for April in the UK.
@@gadgetman36 Thanks!
@@S_Paoliwhich country are you in?
@@TruePakistani7860 the country south of Canada and north of Mexico?
I'm from India and own and Ecosport Titanium diesel. Is the car still available at UK in 2024? Ford has shut down manufacturing in India then where it sourced from?
They stopped selling it in the uk in 2022
I've heard the ecoboost engines are naff, and used models have a tendency to let go after around 60k miles or so. I am considering a used one of these in the future, from a practical sense, ( I need a low boot lip and higher driving position ), but IF I decide on an EcoSport, it definitely won't be one with an ecoboost engine.
First view, crazy ha! Good honest review, considering which small SUV style car to buy, looking for affordability but decent specifications too and I think this car has it. Only gripe is that boot door, why oh why! Could get used to it I suppose!
This car is a complete failure . Ford engines shiite
I have The 2.0 ses really like it, and she's a cutie.😉
Ford invented the small suv segment in Brazil with the 1st generation of the Ecosport based on the old Fiesta from 2003, 2005… the interesting thing is that the VW designers in Brazil had a very similar idea to create a compact suv for third world markets and the Germans ( VW ) thought no one would buy such cars. They were absolutely wrong, Ford took the leadership and created a new segment, for many years with the unbeatable Ecosport from 1st, 2nd and 3rd generations .
Ecboost engine a pile of shit wet timing belt belt in oil rubber belt in engine oil belt snaps engine go's bang called ecoboom in the motor trade how car you recommend a car with such a bad engine do some research
As usual Ford have recalled them in the US but not in the UK. A new engine costs thousands. You can complain to Ford who will look at it on a case by case basis but I wouldn't hold your breath.
We have an Ecosport it’s ok room for kids in the back boot is big enough for most stuff but the door on it is pain.Fuel economy is average only
@ Anthony … Get rid of it asap. Eco boost engine is a disaster waiting to happen. We have 2 fords sitting on drives engine failures . Cost to repair over £4000 each
Just sell it ASAP and go for TOYOTA YARIS CROSS. It will go a long way practically no maintenance costs 😊🎉
We had an Ecosport as a loaner a few years ago..........dreadful thing, especially the ride.
Wait until the engine seizes due to the oil pump.
To you Brits from English speakers across the pond, PLEASE. It's pooma and jagwar. Practice it a few times until you get it right. Thanks.
I'm not sure you actually speak English ;) -Tim
Do not buy anything with a 1.0 ecoboost engine. It will blow up!! Not if.... when!!
The Ford EcoBoom engine 😂
Couldn’t agree more… we have 2 fords with failed engines on the drive, cost to repair over £8k
Dodged that bullet!
@michaelheadley2041 ours needed a whole new engine, standard story, Oil pickup blocked solid with rubber residue from the wet belt and starved the top end of oil. Made a biblical noise when it let go!! But Ford didn't want to know. Cost us a fortune. Utter rubbish that engine.
Why do you say so@@mitchreeves1
I don't like the non-tailgate. It's not at all practical and looks so out of place on this car. What were the designers thinking?
Ford is as failure
FORD = Fix or Repair Daily! 😂
FIAT = Fix It Again Tony
Avoid the 1.0 EcoBoost engine like the plague!
Ecoboost engine is a disaster waiting to happen
Seen that soooooooooooooo many times as a mechanic. DO NOT BUY FORD FULL STOP
Toyota cars are best 🎉
AVoid like the plaque cam belt is completely shit had to replace it after 55.000
The dumbo ford people in weymouth serviced it 5 weeks prior to failure obviously they didn't check it....
We feel scammed
Which engine you talking about I take it the 1.0?, always steer clear of that engine it's always had problems since came out in 2012 on mk3 focus!!!, the 1.5tdci is the bullet proof engine!!
Lots of flaws in this review!, diesel are rare well there's loads about! Controls are modern taken from mk4 focus!, lots of spec leather version with heated steering and blind spot with lux pack!!, and reversing camera comes standard which you don't get on other ford's!!! And puma don't diesel!, the best engine is the bullet proof!!! 1.5tdci,
ugly cars with shit engines and overall just looks cheap and nasty, the puma is leagues ahead of this but id still rather have a 12 year old fiesta with the solid old 1.25 zetec lump
It's an engineering piece of crap.
DONT BUY FORD - DISASTER WAITING TO HAPPEN
TOYOTAS ALL THE WAY BEST CARS EVER 😊
