History of the Fiesta 1983 to 1989
Enter the 1.4S
Introduced in 1986 the 1.4S used the "lean-burn" 1400 CVH engine. The S was based on a package called the S-pack which consisted of optional extras you could have added to your car before receiving it. The extras included were, sun roof, spot lights, sports steering wheel, special trim, white wheel trims, a black surround for the rear window, red bumper and side stripes and a Fiesta 1.4S sticker. The original idea was that the S-pack was only to be available as an option on the 1.4 L model but when it was unleashed onto the market it was released in the form of a new model, the 1.4S.
