The fiesta is a smaller car from the class below. The pro cee'd is from the c segment so is a focus/corolla/golf competitor. The Kia would be my choice out of those 2 but the fiesta might have a better interior. Is the cee'd a pre facelift?

Wasn't the ceed facelift in 09 or so?

I'd probably have it over the fiesta as the engine is nicer, and it's bigger,
That the fiesta has aged better as a model and the interior is a little nicer.

They didn't get the so called "tiger nose" until 2011. This update also came with interior upgrades such as a nicer instrument cluster and a nicer fully black interior instead of the two tone black and beige interior of the pre facelift.

Edit: it seems earlier cars without the tigernose facelift also have the interior updates so you are right.

The interior of the Kia does not look good at all
