Ford has sold over 17 million Fiestas worldwide, making it Ford’s third most popular car of all time. Gather round D-Holes, and hear James Pumphrey explain why this Fiesta is no siesta.

Never going to call ST models the same 😂
can somebody call the doctor for that man ? 13:09 😂
can you guys make a video on the honda crv plzzzzzz
@@lamborghinigaming8912 he's never gonna see it here. Comment under the video not under some guys comment
@@OriginalKingRichTv ok sorry
@@saadchakir2413 social distancing right?
Thanks for the love! Our fleet of fiestas are getting some extra love in this down time. Looking forward to sliding around again soon
Donut up to speed on Team O’Neil????
Ha, your video of the Fiesta is the reason I got my Ford Fiesta for my rallycross car.
That seems like the most badass thing to ask someone if they want to go do. Hey should we go race go karts and play put put or race offroad in a rally car
@@johnnyturbo8460 Same here!
@@steven_7577 nice! I have some videos posted on UA-cam of me racing.. last year I got 3rd over all because I missed 2 races and the points that go along with them. But got 2nd over all the year before 😁👍
Donut media: Makes Show about Ford Fiesta
James: puts a Ford Focus in the background
Are they not the same thing ?
@@adameve8026 are you serious? lol
That threw me off the whole episode. 5 min after watching, I saw a fiesta on the street and realized what the problem with this episode was 😂😂. Damnit James!
@Armathynx oh ok got it. I always thought that they were the same thing 😂 my bad. I never got into FF and have chosen FR or AWD/4WD. But the newer RS with drift mode got my attention. Thank you for the straight answer. Some of us like me and myself lack knowledge.
and a Focus ST burnout video
James is, by far, one of the most charismatic hosts that i know here in UA-cam. Sometimes i don't even care about what is the subject of the video, i just click on it to laugh a little with those geniously well timed jokes. Keep up with the good work bro! Greetings from Brazil.
I might be able to enjoy it if he would stay at the same fucking volume. Shouts his head off then starts mumbling, then raises his voice again
Fumbling with my volume controls more than my nipples and thats unfortunate

Video is about the ford fiesta
Editor: Damn a Focus RS would be a good background
Yeah Ik right...you should put the MK8 ST there - oh wait the US doesn’t have it!
And let's close it off by saying the Fiesta ST is still sold in Australia by ... showing a (current) Focus ST.
It wasn’t the rs...
JA9MZ what? The pic in the background behind James is an RS. It even has the badge on the front bumper 🤷🏻♂️
@@ja9mz663 exactly
This dropped just as I sat on the toilet, and James had to call me out.
CJ R same🤦🏽♂️
Same 😂
"D R O P P E D"
Excellent word choice 👍
Bro sameeee😂😂
It’s funny because when he said that I read your comment BUT I’m also on the toilet
Fun fact: Impreza in Polish means the same as Fiesta in Spanish
So what does it mean
@@Joopyter724 party
@@chrib1r.615 thanks
that is a fun fact!
So it means 'sausage party'?
Driving my 2017 fiesta down country lanes makes me feel like a rally champion every time, I love it
You could say its a. Fiesta xD
@@xXrandomryzeXx ba dum tss
My near-base model '09 has that feel too, despite having clearly led a hard life before I bought it at the end of 2019 for what was then the cheapest Mk6/7 in the country, it feels so tight and direct.
Cute dog in your profile picture
Same for my 2014 one, I currently lack a turbo on mine but plans later one to add one
In the next ten years, whenever they make a video, they'll include.
"But in 2020, the Global Pandemic Covid-19 hits the world"
Amir Hamzah Husni at least like our grandparents. We can tell our kids how we survived the global toilet paper shortage, and yell at them for not folding their TP over to get 2 wipes from 1 ply
Good point, people will start saying this. Markers like these in our lives are powerful.
ah man that'll be so cringey but also ugh but then again more gaming xD
But in 2020 most everyone believed covid 19 was actually real and viruses are airborne. Instead of having to be injected.... people are so gullible and forgot how to do basic research instead of believing everything they see... hope in humanity is lost.
@@drewscorner5412 Hey good points for sure. Glad someone is doing research for us all. Thank you for sharing your findings and I have read similar things.
Day 1 on asking James to do an up to speed on him self.
Young Exotics YES, his backstory of his dad and all
yea booy
We can't handle that much lightning! ⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡
DAAAAAAAD
Give this man a beer
I had to decide between a Fiesta ST and Focus ST.
Got the Fiesta ST. My favorite car as of yet. Extremely underrated in fun factor
How tf is it underated? Its extremely hyped for the way it drives
James Upton I meant more as under purchased - at least in my area. Any STs I see are focuses
Same here. Sold my boat like STi and got this fun hatchback!
@@Thesusoperator me too, but still nothing can beat the wrx sit yet
I have had my st for 6 years. Since new. Still makes me lol and smile.
"Fiesta comes back to US." -shows focus doing a burnout.
"Europe's most succesful new car in history" was a ford lol?
Thats my thought

Tanner Foust: "James, stop telling people we are best friends". Huge missed opportunity right there, Donut.
Nah, that line is for Dai!
I think it’s the Spoon Civic time attack episode
What about that recent thing on the net where the behind-the-scenes driver for TGear said that Foust "is not a car guy" and was self-centred narcissist ? I hope James really isn't his friend in real life.
Lol didn't bubba wallace say that too?
Jimmy was in trouble
"The All New Ford STUH"
"Never coming to an american dealership near you"
theyre cool cars, and if you get maintenance done these ecoboosts are pretty reliable. a local guy has a 2017 fiesta st with 290,000 miles on it. no major repairs other than routine maintenance. pretty impressive.
2017 with 290k miles sheesh
My daughter bought a 2019 Fiesta ST. Now, I want one.
One year later..I have a 2018 ST in Orange Spice!
@@JDsHouseofHobbies Very nice, glad you got one
@@JDsHouseofHobbies welcome to the fiesta club, you have unlocked the ultimate driving experience
Legit just told my parents that the Fiesta was considered a performance car and now I got a vid to back it up
Yeah that’s what I thought....dad
That basically how I convince my mom buy fiesta as daily
Try launching a base model when you test drive it. You rev up to 2k and the ECU goes, "hey how 'bout you kindly *stop having any joy in this world?"*
@@jordaneggerman4734 I once launch it to 4k and it still alright (well obviously your dumbass just had it change)
A fezi is the greatest hot hatch
@@WhosManIsThis right. Because that's the way to go about things. If you get lucky, you can trick it, yes, but at 2,000RPM there is a fuel cutoff, "dumbass"...
James: The average power of a car today is 230 hp
Me from Austria: *chokes on my beer*
Tschimbo 12 makes me realize that of my 3 vehicles, only one was rated above 230hp from the factory, the one that’s 27 years old (my 93 Z28- rated at 275hp to the crank but in actuality makes 268hp to the wheels which is around 310hp at the crank. They under rated it as not to step on the corvette’s toes). My 23 year old Jeep was rated at 180hp and my 47 year old muscle car was only rated at 170hp (of course they were lying when 2 years prior it made 230hp and nothing actually changed in the 2 proceeding years and it’s not exactly stock anymore).
@@CamaroAmx The thing is in Austria, taxes and the mandatory insurance is is highly dependent on the engine power. So you have to have a decent income to be able to afford a 200hp car. The average car has 123hp.
Tschimbo 12 that’s fine. Buy a lower hp car and modify it so it makes far more.
@@CamaroAmx I don't know about Austria but I know that we in Germany can't just modify our cars that easily. Inspections here are pretty strict and I guess it's similar in Austria
I was the same, I have 210bhp and it’s considered a reasonably quick car.
11:27 "We also got the new SSST" lmao that killed me
Same here🤣🤣
The Fiesta never died, it just took up permanent residence in Europe.
sssst
My wife and I have a 2016 ST and we love it. She wanted to get rid of her GMC terrain for something more fun to drive and we looked at other Hatchbacks but it had to be a stick. A lot of manufactures offered sticks but in the bare bones models. We narrowed it down to the chevy Sonic with the RS package or the Fiesta. After driving both we realized that the Sonic was all show and no go and it was not very comfortable. We ended up with the ST with Recaro seats and she has already been pulled over a couple times. It is pretty fast for a 1.6L
I was in a Ford Fiesta “ *rallying* ”and my buddy rolled it like 8 times
It was ummmm... fun?
MO ROLLING *BABEH*
I like ur videos btw
[Corporal] NoobNr66 LOL
Sickk
But did you die
VW: golf
Honda: civic
Chevy: chevette
Ford: *f i e s t a*
Hotel : *T R I V A G O*
it's funny how they all started off the same size but modern Golfs and Civics are HUGE now. The Fiesta is an entire segment below them and hangs with the Yarises and Fits of the world.
headcoatee yeah that’s what i dont like about new cars being so big
Nope. The Golf would be the focus. Fiesta = Polo.
@@headcoatee Swift
I've got one of the new MK8 Fiesta STs and let me tell you its an absolute blast! Handles like a go-kart, all the mod cons and a nice throaty exhaust with pops/bangs. Never fails to put a smile on my face!
I drove a mk8 ST in Germany about a year ago, and that is seriously the minst fun I've ever had in a car! Just listening to the exhaust when downshifting and speeding up is pure joy!😍
Last time I was this early... ford was still making cars..
It says you posted this comment 8 minutes before the video came out
Lmao
@@ricky5824 true XD
K Y I said I was early not original
They're still making cars in Europe.
the ford fiesta, the american car only european people know.
theres also the ford KA!
It's german
And Brazilians XD
My mum has a 2013 Ford Fiesta Zetec
Honestly, Fords lineup in Europe is better than its American one. Europe just doesn't get the biggest SUVs such as the Explorer.
Somehow, here in México we had the privilege to have the 2008-2009 Fiesta ST. Imported from England. What a nice car. Last NA Hot Fiesta.
I've got one in Australia. It's a bit of a hoot.
My first car was a Ford Fiesta. The handling was described as sport like with tight handling and nice acceleration,and I loved every second of driving it. It is 100% responsible for my love of cars and why I have gone on to buy/love performance cars. So glad I got the fiesta and not the Honda Fit. Otherwise I would have never found my love for cars.
"average HP today is 230"
Me with my 92hp APV: (chuckles) _"I'm in danger."_
Platinum Nath that is a totally false claim based off no factual information. Often cars have 120-200hp. Trucks might have more but its unreasonable to consider them in a *car* hp average.
@@maybelive765 that's still more than my 13 years old APV tho ;-;
58 hp in my 660cc car
I'm driving a 82hp fiesta and my buddy a 50hp fiesta...
@@TheChaosfreak97 i`m driving a 60 hp 2013 fiesta

Love watching all you guys! Keep it up, thanks for making me laugh and keeping us informed with all these great videos during this trying time!!!
Good to see James is doing better and back on the show! Glad your back man!
When you can’t get a Ford Fiesta in the background but you can get a focus RS
To be frank, Fiestas are literally everywhere

I like that your video is about Ford Fiesta and in the background is a Ford Focus RS.

Glad to hear more from James. Stay well brother 💯💯
Who finds themselves browsing the classifieds every time they watch an ‘up to speed’ episode ?
I usually have autotempest pulled up
Okay you caught me
Guilty 😂
nothing i want more than a shitty euro ford car lol.
Dino Man the fiesta ain’t that shitty
Got myself a Fiesta ST as my gas friendly daily about a year ago and I've loved it so far!
It's such a good daily! I honestly wouldn't suggest someone get one as a track only car, there are cheaper used options that'll turn circles around a fiesta st once you throw a couple upgrades at them.
Can't do better on the smiles per dollar metric though.
Nice, I’ve had mine for over 2 years. Still love it, only thing I’ve had to replace was my purge valve. $50 fix and that’s it!
GoatSea Fiesta ST’s are cheap to mod and make faster than most cars on the street. I own one.
Kyle Huish They probably would fix it for free at the dealership. It is a known problem. They were going to fix mine for free but it took so long to get the part I just ordered it online and did it myself.
I enjoy learning about other car markets, not just our domestic market. Thanks for the broader perspective!
Your videos are informative and funny af bro, keep killin it!! 🤙🏽

You should buy used old rally car if you are new at rally. But if you have lots of money Ford makes Ford Fiesta R2 rally cars in their factory and you can buy one. Power, drivetrain and highspeed isn't everything in rallying.
Ayyyy I love my Fiesta I was so happy to see this video!!

I test drove a fiesta st as a joke before going to look at an FRS... I left quite conflicted. 2 years later, sneezy has a happy home
Unless it's an st it's ignorant. I owned one. Stated 42 mpg but got 33 and I drove like a grandma with pot on her all the time. Trans sucked.
Brad Butcher there it is. I hope people look at these two replies, cuz it’s the perfect example of researching the car they gonna buy before getting it. I check for recalls for all of my past cars.
got my fiesta st a year ago, its a great car
@@bradbutcher3984 I own a 2017 and non-ST and it's great. It's got decent power for such a small car and it handles like a dream. New transmission model though.

My very first car was a Mk3 1.3i fiesta that I modified whilst I was waiting to past my test with a XR2i (a car you missed) bodykit , cherry bomb exhaust,,K&N filter, Mk5 Escort GTI wheels and a massive sound system as you did back then , dam I loved that car it was so much fun. I'd love a Mk2 XR2 now with a 2.0 Zetec Turbo conversion 👌
Got an MK6 1.6 from 2004 and I still enjoy driving it!
i got a 2019 st back in September, i’ve been waiting forever for this video haha
Reed Kreg why tho
Alex_In_Transit it’s the last year they’re making them in the U.S. and it’s a quick daily
Got a '16 FiST and I must say, it's probably one of the funnest cars I've ever driven. Plus the gas mileage makes it a perfect daily.

Love the fiesta. Overall one of Ford's best cars. Love the ST models. Sad that we didn't get the latest model and instead got the Edge ST great video as always.
Crappy transmissions though.
This is like 1 of the very few modern cars i wouldn’t hate using for daily driving.
I personally don’t like most economy cars, they’re extremely boring imo
Yeah the car is really fun. Super agile. Really quick and raw. Probably a little too rough but really fun
