Still Waters Posted July 7, 2023 #1 Share Posted July 7, 2023 The last Ford Fiesta will roll off the production line on Friday bringing to an end almost 50 years of history which made it the UK's best-selling car. Ford will produce the final model in Cologne, Germany before its plant is modified to produce more electric vehicles. First manufactured in 1976 it became an instant hit with those wanting smaller, more efficient cars. More than 22 million have been produced globally. Despite a huge choice in brands more Fiestas have been sold in the UK than any other car model, and it was the country's best-selling vehicle every year between 2009 and 2020. It was the 10th most popular new car last year, with more than 25,000 registered. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-66130803 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the whole of the UK, there are only around 30 of them still on the roads. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again my Opal GT ate it's own engine and transmission at the same time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
