Hi everyone & thank you for being able to register.
2016 1.0 Ecoboost
UK

Welcome to the Fiesta forum! We don’t have many of the 1.0 Fiesta here because we didn’t get many of the 1.0 Ecoboost Fiesta in the States. I suspect that it wasn’t popular here because it was a manual transmission only model and that killed the appeal of it.
One question I have for you is why are the UK forum, like ford owners club, so quiet in response to questions about problems and service issues related to their cars? The UK forums are basically devoid of information and discussion about solutions. I just found this to be a very strange takeaway from my searches through the discussion threads. Do you think that this is a cultural thing or do the forums have too many limits on what can be said?

Apologies for the late reply,Scotman.
I honestly could not answer your question as I rarely go on forums. I searched a question I had & it led me here,so I joined. I have noticed in my previous search for answers that the answers were few & far between,so maybe you are correct.
I am surprised you are referring to the Ford Owners Club as it goes far,far back in the UK & I remember it being very popular at one time with enthusiastic owners.
Take care............
