Theres not alot of difference between a 1.4 & 1.6 engine N/A hatch whatever way you look at it! Cheaper roadtax? Nice!

But seriously, with a budget of 1500 and want a newer car, you wont find alot thats much 'newer' to 1996/97 if you are after a nice car

fiesta st is 2.0

mk5 zetec s would be shitty for 1.5k, your looking at 2-2.5k for a decent one i'd say.
