The FORD FIESTA (2002-08) 3DR HATCHBACK 2.0 150 ST 500 is a sporty version of Ford’s small family hatchback, pairing Fiesta-sized practicality with a lively 2.0-litre engine. In the UK market it sits as a hot hatch rather than a basic city runabout, with three doors and a more focused, enthusiast-friendly character. mycarcheck.com records show 628 look-ups covering 207 different VINs, a useful sample for this specific ST 500. Checks indicate an average private-sale value of £1,600 and average recorded mileage of 88,000 miles; typical annual use is relatively low at 4,000 miles. The average keeper count is about five, so individual histories deserve close attention. It suits drivers wanting an easy-to-park commuter with more excitement than small hatchbacks; rear-seat and boot space are modest, so it is less suited as a family’s only car. Its brisk feel and sporting appeal give this Fiesta a distinctive used-car character.
