Ford Fiesta 1.2 Zetec

    I'm looking for a new car and have been thinking of something at least 1.4 engine-wise. I had a 1.2 Punto until recently and while it wasn't a bad car overall, it was crap in the extreme for overtaking and general boot.

    Anyone know how a Fiesta 1.2 Zetec would bear up in this regard? Common sense would dictate that it's inferior, but the old man saw a bargain one recently, so....

    We have a 06 1.25 Fiesta and its a great little car. The engine likes to be revved. Its perfectly geared for city driving 30mph in fifth gear. On the motorway its up over 3500rpm at 120kph. It does lack a bit on the overtake but nothing major. Think its a little high on the emissions so you should compare its output with the 1.4 for tax/VRT reasons
