316 is just horrid. Stick with the Fiesta until you can insure one with a proper engine (330/M3).

The ZetecS badge which is on EVERY Zetec engine was probably going to his head - either that or it was a 1.4 engine in it and he didn't know

A 1.4 is a different story, it could possible match a VTR.

Yeah theres a 1.4 16v Zetec S 88bhp 
With full exhaust and Induction kit like your m8s fiesta it would match a VTR.

The Bavarian may be under powered and slow, but the Fiesta is no rocket ship, and I know which one i'd rather be hit by a dirt lorry in.
It also happens to be the same one i'd prefer to do a long run in or be seen in by any member of the opposite sex.

i can solve this.
the person who brough up the top gear gti story should of explained better.
they had a vts, corsa 1.8 sri and a fiesta zetec s.
the zetec s beat the other two over a few tests like drivability, practicality ect. not in a full on race. it was the car that also gave the driver the biggest grin coz it was exciting according to the bloke on the program
