When you have a good car, you hold onto it and maintain it for ever. When you have a POS you let it go pronto. That 05 Fiesta seems like the latter. Sorry. This is part of why I keep my 1998 Civic. Damn thing was so good from the factory that even now it keeps running, day after day, even with 228,000 US miles on it.

Suzuki seems like a nice little simple car:

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
