Used Ford Fiesta SE for Sale

I purchased my 2012 Ford Fiesta SE for a very affordable price. The interior design and fabrics used looks and feels higher quality than I expected which was a pleasant surprise. Radio sound is great, all dash options are arranged nicely and are plentiful. The drive is smoother than I expected also, hardly any road noise to speak of and the suspension works very well. My only concern is the way it drives. From what I understand about dual clutch engines, this is to be expected. The first several months of driving it felt like I was just learning how to drive a manual transmission. It would shudder, stall, and shift pretty hard until I got used to driving it a certain way. That being said, the fact that it's a dual clutch is what gives me such great fuel economy. I rarely get less than 35.5 Mpg which is great beings that I drive a lot ~50,000+ miles per year. The overall look of the car is nice as well, this is coming from someone who doesn't like hatchbacks and my Fiesta happens to be a hatchback. The seats folding down in the back is also a huge plus, I can actually transport my salon chair to client's homes which makes my work a whole lot easier on my back!! Only other minor complaint is that the car doesn't have automatic headlamps. I've never owned a vehicle without them and I'm having a hard time getting used to having to turn my lights on.

I have the hatchback Ford Fiesta SE and I really like it. It's small, but doesn't feel too small. It's got a sporty feel and I think the hatchback adds to that, as well as the interior fabric, which is black with blue trim that matches the paint color of the car. It's pretty comfortable for the driver and front passenger, but the back seat can get kind of cramped as far as leg room goes. It doesn't have a ton of room for cargo space, the hatchback actually has less room than the sedan does, but in cases where you do need more space, it's easy to pop the back seats down so they lay flat. It has great gas mileage and I like the feature where it tells you how many miles you have left until you have to fill the tank. You can also switch it to show you what sort of mileage you're getting. I haven't gone below 28 mpg, but am consistently in the mid 30s or higher. When I first got it, it did have a problem with over-revving, which required taking it in to the dealer for some updates and eventually that was solved. It drives pretty good now and I haven't had that problem in a long time. The only recurring issue I have is that it often loses air pressure in the tires, especially the front drivers side. Another issue I have is that the design is a bit weird where the windshield meets the front hood and fallen leaves and debris gather there and it's hard to get it out. Wind from driving won't blow it out, so you actually have to go in and clean it out and then it just accumulates again. The controls for the cruise control are on the steering wheel and in my opinion are a little weird. I'm used to it now, but it took me quite a while to remember to turn it on before I hit set instead of just trying to set it. I think they're a little clumsy in execution. I would also like to have the radio controls on the steering wheel with a newer car like this, but didn't have that option. It does have an easy access port for plugging in an iPod or phone though, as well as a usb port for a flash drive, but I can't imagine anyone ever really using that. It also has a different sort of gas tank that doesn't require a gas cap. I was nervous about this, as I'm originally from a northern state and often used to get water in the gas tank during the winter from snow melting. I've only been through one real snowy winter with it since I bought it though and didn't seem to have an issue. Now it seems weird that you would need to unscrew a gas cap to get gas!
