Its still alive, with 235,000km on the clock, its tired though.
Shame they discontinued their hatches, I've put mine through hell, the family has a WS Fiesta CL, WZ Fiesta ST and my LV Focus that were all bought new.
The WS CL was my first car, I started working at 15, saved up enough spondoolies to buy it new at 17 so it kind of sucks to see the car that got you into the brand family disappear, but I guess thats like the Falcon.
I feel like one of those Valiant enthusiasts who is adamant cars died in 1980 - they died in 2016 as far as I'm concerned and the end of the Focus (in Australia) and the Fiesta cements my thinking

I need to have a think about the demise of Ford Australia’s hot hatch / small car legacy, it makes me sad, very sad.
I’ll post against when I can put together what I think, right now it’s all depressing.
