I did have a 1.25 freestyle - I did 67000 miles in 3yrs. I was all set to buy the TDCi S. Until I tested the ST. Its a real fun car to drive BUT I regreting the decision slightly. The car is Great the fuel consumption is a killer. I doing bout 18mpg. That combined driving (motorway/urban).

I got the car just under two weeks ago and I've done 1100 miles in it. Ive filled her up about 4 times I think.

Its a year of ST fun then to the diesel!!

I think a 6 speed box would be a useful change to the car (please listen ford).
