Default 2004-2005 Fiesta auto

Am looking to buy my daughter a 2004/2005 Fiesta auto, kms round 140000kms.

What do I check for as known faults on these cars?

Auto-how long do they last?
Motor

Any tips would be appreciated even one that says buy one below 100000 kms.

Also when do the timing belts need changing?

timing belts are @ 150,000kms or ten years. so you will be up.

dunno about an auto but the motors are pretty good. if it hasnt already been replaced change the water pump with the timing belt.

otherwise make sure servicing has been done and you should be right.
