Ford Fiesta Centura

Ford Fiesta Centura is a new special edition of this widely popular hatchback in the British market, which celebrates the 100th anniversary of Ford in the UK. The car comes only in black, like the Model T Ford of 100 years ago, and offers 600 pounds worth of extra features. But it’s only limited to 1000 units for the entire country. Based on the Ford Fiesta Zetec, the Centura boasts a comprehensive list of additional standard equipment valued at £1,800, including metallic Panther Black paint, chrome mirror and door caps, LED daylight running lights, 16-inch seven-spoke alloy wheels,  automatic headlamps and windscreen wipers,  reverse parking sensors and a parking camera mounted in the rear view mirror. Pricing for this model starts at £13,395 for the three-door version and £13,995 for the five-door. The Ford Fiesta remains the UK’s best-selling car with 52,327 sold in the first half of this year. Anthony Ireson, marketing director, Ford of Britain, said: “Fiesta has been a UK favourite its entire lifetime and it was a natural choice to use this great icon to help mark our centenary. With a unique specification and affordable price, the Centura will appeal to thousands of customers, and we anticipate strong demand – who knows it might even become a collector’s car one day!” The Ford Fiesta Centura 1.25-litre 82PS petrol engine is exempt from vehicle excise duty in the first year.
