My only experience with a Fiesta was watching a Mk1 barrel roll down the front straight at the local road course lol

I have mixed views about the end of the Fiesta. I have great nostalgia for the Mk1 and Mk2 Fiestas because I was ferried around in them by family when I was young. My first car was a Mk2 Fiesta and I loved it and I have a Mk2 XR2 that I will never part with. The Mk3 Fiesta was cack, from that era of Fords designed entirely by the accounts team. I had one and it was a turd that rusted pretty much everywhere you could think to look even though it was only 7 years old. However what I suppose I do find sad is that the end of the Fiesta is another nail in the coffin of the sensible hatchback in favour of stupid hatchbacks on stilts.
