Hi

I have been looking at a new car its a 2001 FORD FIESTA 1.3 Finesse 3dr Hatchback, the only problem i have noticed with it is that when going from 2nd gear to 3rd its a bit stiff and it needs a bit more force to change from 2nd to 3rd that the other gears, they guy says its allways been like that every since they have had it

i was just wondering if this was normal for this car or if its signs of a bigger problem with the car?

thanks
