Encouraging, it looks unmolested by ham-handed urges to "Americanize" it. Hopefully, the mechanicals will retain their European tautness too rather than getting softened.

I'll definitely check it out when it goes on sales.

I need a more economical car, Mustang's full tank can last me only ~200 miles. It cost me around $85 to fill up F-150's tank.

Really?? I'm getting at least 250, and usually closer to 300

And I like the way the Fiesta looks. Will definitely take a peek at em when they start showing up around here

I'm pretty sure I got only 12 gallons fuel tank.

Even when gas tank lamp is on I was never able to put more than 11 gallons in the tank.

thats weird... I wonder why they would even bother with a second tank.

When my low fuel light is on, I can put in about 11-12 gallons, but I have about3 gallons left at the light
