Default Euro Fords in the Movies

I was watching the live-action Thunderbirds movie (don't ask) and I spotted what could be a couple of prototype Fiestas in one shot.
FoMoCo had some major product placement in the movie (which was released in 2004) and quite a few of their vehicles can be seen in it.

Anyway, here are what look like Fiestas (the front end of the foreground one looks like a Focus):


If anyone knows what these are, please let me know. I'm scratching my head here.


And here's what looks like a Ka convertible on the left with FAB-1 in the middle and a Thunderbird on the right.


A futuristic 4x4 dune buggy concept features in a chase scene later in the film, but I didn't get any screencaps of it.
