Used 2011 Ford Fiesta SEL for sale 

The 2011 Ford Fiesta is available in three trim options, namely S SE and SEL. The base model is available at a price of $13,200, which is super affordable while it gets a handful of standard features. They are not enough to fulfill all the basic needs. 

The SE trim adds in more than $1,200, but the addition of those twelve hundred dollars doesn't give you a lot of new features. The top-trim SEL is available at a price of $16,600 and adds in multiple interior features that improve the overall experience of driving the Ford Fiesta sedan.
