My uncle has a 1.5 TDCi Fiesta that had ran 5.5L KM by 2016. Then, on his way to Trivandrum from Pune, he hit a rock on the road and cracked the sump. Considering the situation, he could not stop immediately and ended up seizing the engine. He replaced the motor with a brand new one and it now stands at nearly 8L KM. He had to stop driving because of health issues, but he refuses to sell the car. Shows you what the original Fiesta meant to owners who loved to drive.

My mind saying “ welcome to talking cars” when I hear your “hey everybody”. Good old days🙂❤️

I never knew Fiesta hatchback existed in India. Never saw one. My goodness!

This one was indeed a surprise JD! I own the very similar Fiesta ST3 Mk7.5 here in Europe and it’s a one hell of a car❤one of the best hot hatch ever made.

I drive same model Fiesta (2017 make) in Dubai. made in Germany, 1.6L 4cyl engine with 110hp output. It’s just awesome and still drives great. Really a drivers car for the comfort and pleasure on offer, though it’s a little slow initially (non-turbo). Audio system, though not the Sony sync unit, sounds superb (if you compare with others in the same category or even one segment above). Thanks for sharing the video. 😍

you definitely get richer by the end of each of your videos. Your knack of presentation is superb. eagerly waiting for more

Brilliant video and a unique find! Brings back some fond and some not-so-fond memories of my Fiesta Zetec S (3-door, manual, 1.0 EcoBoost with 125 hp). This particular example looks peculiar with it's Titanium X variant's features and Zetec S variant's (later called ST-Line) front and rear bumpers, probably due to it's JDM origins. AFAIK, the 1.0 EcoBoost with the PowerShift transmission came only in the 100 bhp tune. It was the manuals - Zetec S Red/Black Editions and the later ST-Line that came with the 140 bhp tune. It's miles ahead of the equivalent Polo in the steering and handling department. The steering is pin-sharp and fairly communicative for an EPAS (that's high praise from someone who used to drive a Grande Punto :). The handling balance and the way it 'pivots' around corners is just amazing. The Fiesta ST is the pick of the bunch and gives more smiles/hour compared to the fast, though a bit clinical Polo GTI. The bad bits of the Mk6 (Mk7/7.5 in the UK) generation of the Fiesta were the 1.0 EcoBoost engine with the notorious wetbelt issues (which earned it's nickname - EcoBoom, the not-so-fond memories that I mentioned at the beginning) and poor reliability of the dry clutch PowerShift DCT. However, preventive and regular maintenance should keep these issues under control.

Owning a ford fiesta for over 17 years and still gives the same excitement every time I take it out. The suspension, hydraulic power steering and the feedback it gives is unmatched. Apart from the concern of spares (and economy 😅)I wish to keep it forever. As always loved the episode!

എന്ത് പറ്റി രമണാ ….non-stop Videos ആണല്ലോ ? couldn't be Happier . Keep them flowing🤩🤩

Before you start the engine you always prays by touching the steering ❤❤ that shows how you respect each and every vehicle. Epic video and presentation. Love you mahn ❤❤❤

Woww..as always unexpected content in unexpected time...JD

Used to see this in Mumbai pre covid, with some sticker that indicated it was imported from Japan. Good to see it in your hands!

I believe nothing would be a substitute for Talking Cars, it was indeed marvellous and informative and I never skipped even a single show, a humble request please try to resolve issues if any and rejuvenate the Talking cars once again

Used to own the pre facelift global fiesta 2015. Oh boy it was gem and hoot to drive. It was great for that time and still would like to own one

This guy doesn't need background music slow-motion b rolls.... Well confident with his knowledge 😊😊

I had the 2012 fiesta global and it was one of the best drivers car under 20 lakhs at that time. As you rightly said, the rear end styling was a turn off. But the ride , steering feedback and handling was superb. Service cost never went above 5k. I used it for almost 5 years and never had any issues

Nice review. Very nice to see an amazing ford fiesta hatchback in kerala.😇

11:43 this is the thing that all the drivers enthusiasts like u and us does before driving a vehicle that's the prayer🙏🙏💖💖💖

I very well remember this car. Back in 2012 this was the car I used for for my driving lessons and driving test in the UK. If I remember correctly this was the most sold and most sought after first car in the UK.

"Orikkal poyite pinne thirichu vanne successful aaya brands angene illa". Enter FaFa 🔥

Wow great content.never expected the Fiesta hatch to be in Kerala👏👏

Brother thanks for this amazing experience to see this car through your channel... Like u said, I never ever heard or seen about this unique one in any other channels... Keep entertaining us like this kind of unique videos..

Quality content And presentation ❤ 🎈 🎈

Drove this in Malaysia. One hell of a machine. Thanks a lot for bringing in this champ. 😍

The car is actually looking absolutely good❤

Always loved this hatch. One of the hot looking rearend, personal preference. Always hoped it would come to india under 15lk back in the day. Now, a new hope is brewing. 🤞🏼! Also ford fiesta ST in blue shade always made me drool.

Adipoli... epozha edinde okke vila ariyunne.. very informative ❤❤

Hope Ford comes back with these small fun (without taking much toll on your pocket) cars. My father owns a Ford Fiesta 2007 model diesel. I still couldn't find an all rounder which ticks all the boxes like ford fiest and figo in the segment or even one segment above. So happy for the video. Thanks JayD. Thank you Ford. ❤

brilliant video mate …Loved it ❤😊

Good one . Thank you JD Sir 👍

The car is 55 Tirur😍

Oh Man! this is what we need ❤

Enthusiast's car 😍 Jay d 👍❤

Really informative ❤

Once they introduced global fiesta in india but people were not ready for that design

It reminds us of Ken Block RIP 💔

beautiful hatch very well designed

I own a global fiesta (last generation) about to clock 1 lakh km but still one of the best car out there for those who looks for a good drivers car with great fuel efficiency (23/litre in highways). Very much happy with the product but still wish if these specs could also be had integrated with it. Great content brother 🎉

Informative ❤

I have seen a lot of these in london.. looks great irl.

Maan❤❤ Currently owning a Figo 2014 model...will reach 2 lakh kilometres soon.. will never sell this until the engine runs out. Hope it will keep going till 5lakh kilometres.

I have the sedan version of this car , its just so timeless and still solid ford❤

On a ride back home today, I was wondering when you would start reviewing mass consumer models along with rare classic gems..

Ford and Honda ❤❤❤ miss you both 😢

OMG! When was this in the Indian market? 😢 didnt know that

Please do a video on the Ford Focus also i think is one of one in India

Wow😍❤️

Amazeei !!

Back to back JayD 😮❤

Hey bro.. what is your opinion about buying global fiesta right now ? Please do reply…

If this had paddle shifters, would've been perfect. Though I'm curious, with the car being of European standards, how well it stands against our weather. As usual great content and amazed by your knowledge on the fiesta brand.

Thanks for bringing a Ford.

This car could look great with the Rally version kit if available.

When did this model launched in India?

Ford Mondeo, when you mentioned the projector head lamp, I thought of Mondeo. A big car

Now they are focusing focus 😊

Will the Ford come back to India?

Mine is a fiesta 3 door, 1 litre ecoboost zetec s red edition with 140 bhp🥰 the only concern is the wet belt in these engines.

Fiesta HB was on sale in India?

Rare ❤

Please Review global fiesta Sedan

Fiesta is the choice of Ford for WRC. It proves how capable this car is!!

BRO DO A VIDEO ON THE FIESTA 1.6S HIGHLY UNDERRATED PURE ENTHUSIAST CAR .I THINK MODERN CAR OWNERS SHOULD WHAT FORD CARS WERE BACK THEN FROM 2005 TO 2014 .

there is another fiesta , the ecoboost 1L 3 cylinder turbocharged . it was a pocket rocket. i had to sell vehicle an year back . it had the cambelt replacement which was very expensive but still its ok . very much fun to drive no lag
