I had the fiesta 1.6 16v si and that felt very flat compared to my 1.4 sri 8v, the 1.6 just felt so flat an slow.
Pretty sure the zetecs would carry a different engine though?

The fiesta will be quicker, you'll really notice it on an open road.

I'm guessing its an 8v SRi? You wouldn't really feel the difference in short bursts, but over a longer distance the S would pull away quite comfortably.
