  • Ford fiesta - Best wheel trims? 3 Jun 2024 (Forum)
    I've got a 09 plate Ford fiesta. I've put on 2-3 pairs of cheap wheeltrims over the years but they always fall off. Don't want to drive around without them but don't want to keep spending money on useless products. Can anyone recommend some good, relatively cheap ones that may last?
  • Ford - Eco boost cam belt changes 4 Jul 2023 (Forum)
    Just heard that a Fiesta owner who has the eco boost engine has been quoted £2800 for a belt change at 10 years as prescribed by Ford. Similarly Honda quote a much more realistic figure !!! £1700. A special tool is required which small independents usually don’t have as yet but with the mileages racking up on these popular engines they will be another costly investment
