Picture Of Ford Fiesta

In late 1999, the Ford Fiesta Mk5 was released and saw some minor changes from the previous model, including a front clip that was inspired by the Ford Focus, and a new bumper design and wheel look. A 1.6 liter Zetec engine was introduced which produced over 100 horsepower, and more suspension modifications were made, making the car one of the best handlers on the market. The aftermarket loved these engines, and upgrades were available that would push it to over 160 horsepower quite impressive for such a small vehicle. The Mk5 was produced until 2002, when the current look of the Ford Fiesta was unveiled.


The Mk6 Ford Fiesta was introduced in 2002, and so much change had undergone the line over the years, that it no longer had any ties to its former self. The ST model was released, capable of speeds of up to 130 MPH and was offered with 17 inch wheels, different bumpers and skirting to set it apart from the standard Fiesta. This model is available in Europe today, and will be released in North America as a 2011 model.
