How has the Ford Fiesta changed in the last 36 years?
We got a group of 'no-so-experienced' drivers to test out the original 1976 Ford Fiesta and the brand new Fiesta -- to see just how much has changed.

The 1976 car has a manual choke you need to pull out for cold starts. That's why she was having trouble. I had a 76 Fiesta almost identical to this one. It was even the same hideous green color.

few other questions: -which car can a 20 years old afford -which one is a real car if you like cars at least a little bit, you would choose the old fiesta

Clueless teenagers with the 70s car. What does it prove? They don't know how to drive such a car.. Different to start, no power steering, heavier controls. What would they make of something from the 50s? Having said that, I'm sure it wouldn't take them very long to adapt.

I passed my test in my little Mk2 Pop Plus, wouldn't have a modern one, my car has so much character & it so fun to drive. Never driven a modern one, mainly because if I drove a modern one, I'd see a Mk1 or Mk2 & say "I bought the wrong car". matter of taste really

The steering it's too hard in the all old Ford fiesta,but if you want to be soft,press air tire up little more, choice press bar 2,6 air,and with good drive you realise soft steering.left and right.

I consider the 1976 example a modern car that is extremely easy to drive - if those kids had been properly oriented with it they would have had no problems at all. It's easy to see out of, the steering is accurate and the controls are very thoughtfully laid out...better. Looks better, too.

You did this in the wrong country. Let's see how good that new Fiesta looks next to an optioned-up, fully Brougham-ified bid '70s Pinto! Or better yet, a Mercury Bobcat...

well you should definitely test drive the 1 litre ecoboost. i'd even go as far and say that it has better nvh than various bmw's (f30 320d for example).

it is a great engine indeed, but they should have given it a 6 speed manual, at least the 125ps motorisation. like the Focus and the Mondeo/Fusion. (yes in EU you can have the 1L ecoboost in that car)

If Ford want to big up their new Fiesta why don't they compare it to a competitors current model instead of a car over 3 decades old. There's something far wrong if a modern Fiesta has not come along any in 35 years. I'd still have the MK1 every time though.

So, now, what did we learn, in the old days cars where shitty and hard to drive.. !! ?? NO, they where actually straigt and easy to drive, yet no servo steering to help.. - but you just found two terrible teenage drivers who has no clue to what they where doing. if this video shows the norm in the old car, the roads would have been a mess with accidents.. it wasnt !!
Thanks Dad! It’s been one “L” of a journey…
