BRENTWOOD, England — The Ford Fiesta Zetec S Anniversary edition, which hits showrooms in March, appears to be taking a page out of the Mini playbook, with a showy checkered flag roof decal and a screaming "radian yellow" paint job.
Mini has used the roof as a playful palette, with such artwork as a Union Jack.
The automaker said the Limited Edition Fiesta Zetec S will be priced at the equivalent of $24,780 and will be limited to a production run of 400. The car is equipped with a 1.6-liter 16-valve gasoline engine that makes 98 horsepower. The special edition marks the 30th anniversary of the Fiesta.
Additional features include panther black door mirrors, side moldings, tailgate handle and spoiler; MP3 connectivity; and other interior appointments including silver dashboard bezel velour floor mats, privacy glass, leather seats and checkered scuff plates.
Ford said sales of the Fiesta spiked 24 percent in 2006, from 83,803 to 103,856.
