Unlike many, I had a great experience with our Ford Fiesta. It was my wife's daily to work. although we clocked in little mileage compared to many other Fiesta users, we really enjoyed it. Bought it with a 14k discount brand new from Sime Darby Ford. bought at RM 72k. Under warranty, they updated the software for the gearbox and 1 clutch replacement at 8 months old. Had the car for 8 years plus and sold it last year because we got a good price for it. sold it for RM21K. The car never once broke down. We maintained it for 5 years in Sime Darby Ford and the balance 3 years with Bengkel Excellence Subang. Other than the water pump for periodical maintenance and the front suspension being damaged by a tire shop, there were no major issues. The Aircond was cold, and the car was built solid. The sound system was proper and the car had a fantastic paint job from the factory. Loved the seats as it was like a semi-bucket style. half leather and half fabric. At the time, many competitors, like the Vios and City, were using 15/16-inch wheels, but they all used 185-wide tires. The fiesta was running 195/50/16. The car handled well with this tire profile. Overall we were very satisfied. Just thought I'd share my experience.
Best car i ever own,10/10 wont buy again..the pain point of this car is the dct + smelly aircond…i change clutch 5x under warranty..sold it after 5years..if they ever re-release it with a reliable gearbox-would buy it and keep it forever..in us actually there is a lawsuit that ford are force to repurchase it..
230k km never once changed the tcm. Today i clocked 40km/l on sport mode. Unfortunately cannot paste the image here. Otherwise i can let people see how capable this car is.
I may be biased but we have really bad experience with Fiesta Ecoboost. Parts are expensive and problem headache. I'd rather go for VW or even BMW anytime
10 automatic cars malaysians will avoid after hard lesson learnt 1. Any Ford Mondeo, Kuga, Fiesta, Focus 2. Any VW dry DSG. 3. Any Renault automatic. 10. Nissan Syplhy 2.0
I had a Mondeo with a wet-clutch Powershift previously and a Kuga with an Aisin 6AT now. Both were fine during ownership, but the issues arose with the one that had dry clutches powershift.

For RM7,000 what will be your choices? I will wait for avW210 non kompressor model.
Cool. Mr Thana has a workshop in USJ? Cos I think I was behind his yellow Boxster once somewhere near the GWM showroom
Should continue content about under rated second hand car that’s good to own and drive.
Maintenance and workshop list would be beneficial. Tq
