Well I decided to join this very friendly forum as after a long few day's scratching my head on which new car to buy I have eventually opted for the ST. Reading everyone post they all seem to enjoy having one so hopefully I should be pleased with mine.

The spec I got is

Black Panther in colour, full leather which is the ebony haze leather, ESP, Tech Pack, Bluetooth, Priv Glass including rear park censors. Everyting else that is standard with them only done 2444 for £9500. I had a look round and this one from Ford Direct seemed about the best price.

Just got to do the long wait of 2 weeks ggrrr.. ah hopefully the wait will be paid off by a nice car.
