Default Fiesta 2003-2008 (Flat folding rear seats?)

Hi Guys,

Quick question, Currently have a Mk IV Golf 3-Door and the rear seats fold completely flat leaving a level boot space.

Does the Mk6 Fiesta 3-Door have the same feature or do they sit at an angle?
Could anyone take a quick pic of the rear load space with seats down please?

Lift up the base from where the seat belt catches come through and it hinges forward towards the front seats, then the backs will sit flatter, if that makes sense.
I'll take a pic later

Yes that makes perfect sense. Same as my Golf.
A pic would be brilliant, Would give me a good idea of the room.


Now just hope insurance is reasonable!! (I'm in Ireland)

Few quick snaps... not completely flat, but flat-ish
For reference to size, the parcel shelf is along the drivers side of the boot.
Is it an ST you're thinking of getting?

Looks ideal!!
Thanks for taking the time to get the pics.


Unfortunately no, It's a 1.6TDCI Zetec S.

Insurance is a massive pain in the arse at the moment, Only 21 and coming from a MKIV Golf 1.4.

All insurance premiums are gone up in Ireland at the moment. (My renewal went up almost 50%)
